Ganesh, an aspiring film director, visits his neighbour, Merlin, under the pretence of having lost his key. As he waits for the carpenter to arrive, the neighbor makes him a cup of tea and they talk about Ganesh’s work as an assistant director which is tiresome and underpaying.

The conversation develops and more details are shared about the director's plans to work on a feature film. The project has a strong female protagonist who has built a vast empire for herself. Further, he says that Merlin would be the perfect fit for this role which draws favourable interest from her. He even prompts the film to be a low-budget one and thus, convinces Merlin to fund the film as well. It is through this exchange that the film shares its message about seeking and grabbing opportunity, and to forever be on one's feet to survive the extremely competitive film industry.
