The central idea of Bandish was taken from the Hollywood film Random Harvest (1942).[1] The story is about a married Pakistani man who is a son of an industrialist and husband of a loving wife. He goes on a business trip to Indonesia. There he receives a head injury in a boat accident. Though he survives the accident and reaches ashore on an island but due to the trauma, he now experiences amnesia, forgetting his personal identity and his family back in Pakistan. On the island, he meets an Indonesian girl who takes him to her home and takes care of him. Days pass by and the Indonesian girl starts learning his language, Urdu. Meanwhile, his wife starts tracking him and finally finds him. Then a drama occurs between the three characters; a man with lost memory, a worried wife, and a girl in love with a foreigner.[2][3]
