'Hawa Dheere Aana' is a simple story set in the backdrop of Daryaganj a few decades ago in Delhi. The narrative is led by the young girl Shinu who is in her early teens and lives with her extended family in a mansion at Daryaganj. Life for Shinu flows like a smooth river where the only struggle is to make her mother understand that Shinu is not interested in Dolls. Instead, her interest lies in playing cricket at the grounds of the Red fort, audaciously creating everything that she cannot afford to have at the workshop she has made for herself at the rooftop of the Mansion and holding deep conversations with 'Jeenudadu' who nobody except her can see. The darling of her BadePapa, BadiMa, Baba, Maa, ChoteChachu, ChotiMa, Didi and Sona Dada she slowly starts understanding the undercurrents that exist in the apparent smooth flow of her life. Some stories do not have a villain but lives still get disrupted, hearts do get broken and intense pain of some situations results in a deeper appreciation of the bonds of love that people form. The proverb about troubles refers to when it rains it pours to magnify the pressure of problems and the same happens to Shinu and her family. The heart-warming wedding celebrations of Didi are shadowed by the completely unexpected turn of events due to the socio-political situation of the city. To make matters worse even JeenuDadu proclaims that Shinu could no longer see him because she is growing up and grown-ups cannot see a Djihn.Isn't that totally unfair?
