Sivan is a very creative filmmaker and you will only agree with me when you realize that he tells the story of "Inam" from two extremely different perspectives. While the story is told to us through the past of Rajni, but Sivan wants us to see his work through the eyes of Karan, a special child, who plays the role of Nandan to perfection.
Through Rajni's story, he shows us exactly how innocent lives are lost in a war, children are orphaned, and young girls are molested. Through Nandan's story, we see that even in warfare, there's room for optimism, care and affection. For instance, in a scene where bombs are being air-dropped and everybody is running for cover, Nandan takes the effort to save a turtle. He befriends a human skull and calls it 'Mr. Friend', builds a strange relationship with it and even saves Rajni from her molester towards the end of the film.
