The story of Antarbaas revolves around relatioships in a family headed by Soumitra Chatterji, his wife, children and their sposes. Sex and extra-marital relatioships present unique challenges to a otherwise stereotypical middle-class contemporary Kolkata family. Following present trends of liberated Bengali films, there does seem to be a kissing scene in the film. The conflicts arise due to sexual indiscretions and affairs between some family members, with unplanned pregnancy and love affairs giving rise to complex situations.
