Hearing Dheeraj’s voice Manju hurriedly gives the phone to her passing sister-in-law MEENA (20). Hearing a beautiful voice the Casanova in Dheeraj got to play and Meena didn’t mind either, innocently playing along and little did they know they are drawn closer leading to something more meaningful.

Not having met ever and getting deeper into – over a phone relationship brought forward serious questions and even bigger fear for Dheeraj indulging with a married woman.

The fragile fabric of their phone love affair, and the dreams they built in each other are threaten to rip them apart.

Did Dheeraj and Manju finally meet or did culture, cast, and society consume them?

Missed Call is a new romantic twist in the generational old rural India.
