Synopsis

The word ‘shillak’ literally means savings; funds set aside or something that is left behind. Every time a society faces a socio-economic change, left behind are the echoes of the demands by that change, in the minds of the sufferers. What the next generation inherits from the past is the cracked, the fractured and the uncertain present. An average middle-class family generally depends entirely on the father, the head of the house, for all necessities. 'Shillak' peers into one such home and brings out the deep-seated distortions in its image brought about by these times of retrenchments and lay-offs.
