Piku centers on the relationship between an ageing, hypochondriacal father, Bhashkor, and his practical, independent daughter Piku, who runs an architectural firm in Delhi. Bhashkor suffers from chronic constipation and is obsessively fixated on his bowel habits. After a domestic dispute and concerns over his health, they, along with Piku’s brusque employer Rana, undertake a road trip from Delhi to Kolkata to transport Bhashkor back to his ancestral home and to address his long‑deferred desire to return.
