Kanpur ke Govind Nagar ki tang gali me bana do kamron ka purana makan, jahan sadiyon purane pankhe ki aawaz aur deewaron par railway ke purane calender tange hain. Arsat saal ke Jagdish Prasad, jo railway ke accounts department se clerk pad se retire hue hain, apne aangan me baithkar dhoop sekte hain. Unki har mahine pachees hazaar rupaye ki pension aati hai, par wo pension unki nahi, balki poore parivar ke jhagde ka maidaan ban chuki hai. Bada beta Ramesh ek private transport company me choti naukri karta hai aur EMI ke bojh tale daba hua hai. Uski patni Sunita din bhar rasoi me bartan patak kar ye jataati hai ki budhe baap ki dekhbhal ka sara bojh usi par hai. Chhoti beti Pooja, jiska sasural pados ke mohalle me hai, har pehli tareekh ko subah chai ke waqt aakar khadi ho jaati hai kyunki uske pati ne use hissa laane ka hukm diya hai. Har mahine ki pehli tareekh ko aangan me hisaab-kitab ka drama shuru hota hai. Par Jagdish Prasad bina ek lafz bole sirf apni tulsi ki mala pherte rehte hain. Jab bank se pata chalta hai ki khaate me balance zero hai aur makan par notice aaya hai, tab poore parivar ki zameen khisak jaati hai. Aakhir kahan gayi pichhle paanch saal ki pension, aur kyun chup the Jagdish Prasad.
