The film opens with three friends, Shubh, Chetu, and Akash, drinking into the night. The bonfire burns brightly but has to be extinguished a little sooner than expected, perhaps even serving as a metaphor for their friendship.

Shubh is about to move to the US for a year, but underneath it all lurks an important piece of information that he has withheld from Chetu. This concealment and its eventual revelation thus come to form the driving force of the narrative. The film is a sincere, earnest tying together of these myriad components in a whole that has friendship, and the importance to let go in order to soar higher and higher, at its heart.
