‘Dipholu’ follows Kuhi (Amrita Gogoi), a young woman from Guwahati who is sent to a remote village on the banks of the Dipholu River for her medical training. As she navigates the challenging conditions of the village and its dilapidated healthcare facility, she meets Neel (Subrat Deori), a humble school teacher. Their initial clash evolves into a heartwarming journey of personal growth and community impact. The film captures Kuhi’s transformation from a materialistic, city-centric dreamer to a compassionate, grounded individual through a series of humorous and heartfelt experiences.
