Tinhisanja (2019)

Baron von Munchausen, an 18th-century German commander noted for exaggerating his life and experiences, was named after a factitious condition known as 'Munchausen Syndrome.' He has worked with persons who had this strange disease. The story of 'Tinhisanja' centres around the affairs of two neighbouring families, the Nadkarni and Joshi families. Mansi Nadkarni has no children of her own, so she recreates the bond with Joshi's 7-year-old daughter Ashwini. Mansi is forced to cut all ties with Ashwini due to society's treatment of childless women, which causes her emotional anguish. Mansi, who is powerless, takes solace in a doll that she treats as if it were her own child. Mothers of children aged 5 to 6 years terrify them with a scarecrow to encourage them to complete tasks, but there is no scarecrow because it is merely a mental image. Mansi, on the other hand, sees the scarecrow in her mind's eye and orders him to take her child away. The scarecrow appears and attempts to kidnap the infant. But she's not ready to let go. They squabble over it. "Tinhisanja" is a transitional period between evening and nighttime, most known for a person's hypersensitive mental condition during this time. In Indian culture, this is a fortunate period.
