This Hindi movie is a pretty straightforward slice-of-life story that tries to give a modern look at what it's like to be a single, professional gay man. It dives into how he understands who he is, the chances he missed out on, and the personal choices he’s made along the way. The director used three parallel timelines to tell the story, which honestly didn't make much sense to me. While the core idea was actually pretty interesting, I really feel like this would have worked way better as a short film considering the point it was trying to make. Still, it wasn't a bad watch. The plot centers on Rachit, a city professional, and his friend Shikhar as they hang out for an evening. Rachit is a polished, urban guy, while Shikhar has more of a "small-town" rustic vibe, and you can really see the contrast between them when they talk. As the night goes on, Rachit starts thinking back to some old memories from a long time ago. He remembers being an intern after college in ...

Although tiring, the relationship works for three of them and they decide to buy the home they are living in and make a life together.
The film felt very low on production quality. And the background music was very distracting. The premise is interesting but i am in double mind about the feasibility of it all. I can see this happening but will all members be satisfied and happy? I am not too sure of that. The trio tries to make it work with each other, no jealousy or problems, except cleanliness issues. No one ever feels left out. As Sebastian says, Ana gets best of both worlds: safety and boyfriend in Nacho and excitement and lover in Sebastian. Its good to see Nacho and Ana having all possible doubts in the world about this relationship but we never get to understand Sebastian's point of view. His feelings are static, his character never develops, he is just that hot guy that lets Nacho and Ana plug and play all day. Thankfully we do get to see and enjoy Sebastian's package in its glory and sigh! He is not only blessed with good looks but also down there. Nacho is also pretty good looking and Ana is strictly ok.
There is nothing out of the world in this film. Its a simple though a bit shallow love story of boy meets girl meets boy trying to tell us that gone are the days when people used to worry about labels. (5/10)
