In the short film, Seema is seen starting her routine by waking up early in the morning, taking care of her in-laws, kids and husband. She is also seen saving money by working in a parlour. Although her work gets monotonous, she never complained, but it is her husband's words that hurt her - he tells one of his friends that she cannot run the house with her earning! She also gets hurt when her daughter asked her not to embarrass her in front of her friends. (It's here that that film reminds us of English Vinglish, when Sridevi's husband in the film insults her by saying that she is born for making ladoos, and her daughter mocks her for her poor English.)

This is the story of almost every woman who manages the house and fulfils her family's demand but never get rewarded or appreciated. They shed silent tears but never let their family get a whiff of their troubles. The title 'Ghar Ki Murgi' is derived from the proverb 'ghar ki murgi daal baraabar' which means we don't value what we have in life and suits the short film. On the whole, the short film is a must watch for everyone!
