When her only daughter intends to get married within a month, 50 yrs old widow Neela, who has deep fear of loneliness, must become aware of this fear by stop denying it and then try to face and overcome this fear by accepting the truth that we are all alone so that she can give consent to her daughter's marriage.

Understood.

This concept appears to hinge on cultural specific conventions therefore the setting is important to the concept and needs to be mentioned in the logline.

The stakes won't necessarily be miss-understood in other cultures but the conventions that create them need clarification.

DPG asked a good question, the answer could change the logline.

Either the daughter is defying the ways of old or she is struggling to follow her heart and comply with them at the same time.

Thanks for clarifying the cultural context.

Is the story also a clash between traditional values and modern values?

sorry my bad. forgot to mention that i'm from india. n here we still have the concept of joint family. so many children stay with their parents even after their marriage. also english is not my 1st language so i'm not able to articulate it properly. but here the issue is not about the mother's consent. mother will give her consent anyways but she's just not ready to face this inevitable situation. as they both love each other so much. n even daughter understands this. n that is why even she wants to handle this situation delicately. as she cares for her mom so much n also worried for her. so in this context, the stakes are high. but maybe people in U.S won't be able to relate to this situation at all.
