Road to Abana is the story of Paari and her steely determination to return to her home in Sukkur, Pakistan -- a home she was forced to abandon during the Partition of 1947. Almost two decades later, an opportunity arrives when she is recruited into an arms trafficking business to deliver consignments to Karachi and Kandahar.
From the deplorable refugee camp in Ulhasnagar on the outskirts of Bombay where she lives on the fringe of humanity, to the dark alleys of Karachi and the treacherous terrains of Afghanistan, Paari’s dangerous journey is wrought with hardships that constantly test her spirit and tenacity. With the successful delivery of each consignment, Paari moves a step closer to reclaiming her home. A chance encounter with a childhood sweetheart adds some sparkle to her loveless life.
Just when fortune begins to favour her, she stumbles upon a bitter truth and the plot to prevent her from attaining her goal.
Will Paari succumb to the betrayal or will she succeed in avenging her homelessness?
Road to Abana is a journey that is significant to all those who stubbornly believe that home is a heartbeat.”
