The story line was dealt with warmth and great sensitivity, as the narrative revolves around the life of a teenager, Gopi.
Life takes a twist for Gopi, the third child born into a typical middle class family, when he discovers his alternative sexual orientation. Gopi then leaves home, to join the transgender community and take on his new avatar, as Gopika.
