When their baby girl was born, Priya and Ramesh were on cloud nine. They were glad that finally, they could have their own family but now their dreams have turned into nightmares. They might lose their 5-month-old precious daughter any moment to a heart disease without further treatment.
Priya's Baby Girl was born with 3 holes in her heart
At the beginning, Priya's pregnancy journey was smooth. Unexpectedly during her 7th month, she had labor pain and delivered a premature baby girl. Her daughter weighed exactly one kilo and was immediately rushed to NICU. The worse was yet to come. Priya and Ramesh were devastated when they heard that their daughter has three holes in her heart and needs an urgent heart surgery.
Priya's baby girl had breathing trouble and severe cold. Priya did not even get a chance to hold her daughter. She is allowed to see her baby girl in ICU only for few minutes. She is heartbroken to see her daughter in such a critical condition. Since she weighed only 1 kilo, doctors were focusing on helping her gain weight, after which she can have her surgery.
Ramesh has been running from pillar to post ever since the baby is born. He feels completely lost. There is no one to support him emotionally and financially as well. He consoles and gives hope to Priya because he can't bear to see her suffering.

This Baby needs a prolonged stay in ICU
It is still uncertain how long Priya's daughter needs treatment. If they continue the treatment without any interruptions, she has a high probability of recovery. Ramesh has borrowed money from everyone he knows and now he is completely helpless.
