The plot revolves around Milu, a carrier pigeon who operates during a war. The play tells the viewer what her perception of the world is. Ghosh tells us that the objects she is using to tell Milu's story include a lot of toys. "That's because the idea of war as a game was a metaphor that was too delicious to resist. There are a lot of toy soldiers and the pigeon itself is a toy pigeon. There are boots, globes, aquariums and chocolates, too, the last of which denotes a love story that melts and gets eaten, because I do eat it," Ghosh, who is also the play's sole performer, shares.
She adds, "I don't like to make a play thinking that I'll impart a message, because I'm not a teacher. I also don't think it's necessarily the job of theatre to give a message; its job is to make people uncomfortable, to provoke them a bit. So, the moral of the story isn't something that I aim to give. But I do hope that the play moves people."
