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.

Despite having a promising premise, the execution of the show is pathetically bad. I mean, I have no words. The acting, the dialogues, the direction, the editing, the kind of conflicts that come; everything feels so immature and lazy. I was constantly rolling my eyes and feared that my eyes would pop out of my socket. None of the boys was decent looking either. Overall, a major major disappointment in every possible way. The show wants to ask the audience questions like "What will you choose?? A friendship that will last, or a love without certainty??". How I wish first they asked themselves, what the hell are we trying to make here! (1/10)
