Aamar Boss centers on Animesh, a 40-year-old publishing house owner estranged from his wife, who is focused on her career in Mumbai. His mother, Shubhra Goswami, recovering from a heart operation, decides to work as an intern at his office, to his dismay. Shubhra’s decision to allow employees to bring their parents/in-laws to work, setting up a daycare for the elderly, creates tension between her and Animesh. When Animesh rushes to Mumbai after his father-in-law’s death, Shubhra’s initiative becomes a contentious issue. Animesh wants to shut it down, while Shubhra aims to make it a profitable venture.
