Not all maidservants are untrustworthy and thieves. They too are human hard working with dreams to fulfill in their eyes. One such maid is Padma who works for an elderly couple. While the woman is constantly complaining and suspicious of her husband, he is a jovial, happy-go-lucky fellow who happily shares his pakoras with Padma or encourages Padma to pursue dancing, her passion.

One day when his wife catches the two dancing and laughing she loses her cool and insults Padma calling her a slut. Padma leaves and the next 3 weeks take a toll on the couple as they cannot manage all the housework and the cooking. One day the wife comes across a viral video of Padma dancing and is shocked to see how talented Padma is. When her husband tells her he is helping Padma fulfill her dreams the wife feels ashamed of misunderstanding them. She calls Padma back and decides to treat her as their daughter and not maidservant.

With a simple thoughtful message, the short film reaches out to the audience with the message to treat their maidservants with dignity. Everybody has the right to see dreams and try and fulfill them. If you can lend a helping hand it will go a long way in the ties you build in life.

Shot and directed by Abhishek Ganguli with script by Arundhati Chaudhuri, 'Maidservant'  features Dr Shyamal Adhikari, Arundhati Chaudhuri, Swapna Mandal with Poulami Das in the title role. All the actors have done a good job.

This humorous short film comedy from the Cinema For A Cause stable and created by Learning Systems has been jointly brought to YouTube by Dr. Shyamal Adhikari and Soumya's Clicks.
