Plot
Taar is a story based on Telegram. The story is set during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. War has had serious effects on countries. Many soldiers have lost their lives protecting their country and loved ones. Before the introduction of technology, telegram was the only means of communication for these soldiers with their families. These telegrams conveyed many good and bad messages from soldiers to their families. Thus, Telegram tells the story of a postman who carries a bundle of such telegrams and delivers the messages of these soldiers to their families.
