Synopsis

The film revolves around the emotional bond shared by four main characters: Namit, Manjari, Abeer, and Surjo, who start out as friends in college and eventually become each other’s chosen family.

Manjari is not entirely immune to the influence of patriarchy and tradition. She is determined to become a doctor so that her conservative father and brother cannot force her into marriage.

Her strong, independent, and fearless nature fascinates the three boys, and they quickly become close friends. However, as time passes, all three boys discover that they are in love with Manjari and confess their feelings to each other. On her birthday, the trio decides to find out who she truly loves. However, during the celebration, some boys record a video of the trio confessing their love to Manjari while she is intoxicated. In her drunken state, Manjari admits to loving all three of them. The next morning, she does not recall anything that happened and leaves abruptly.

The video is posted on YouTube, causing a rift between the trio and the boy who posted it. A physical altercation ensues, and a chemical is accidentally spilled on the boy. The trio then turns on each other and breaks up, leading to an exploration of the concept that in modern times, friends can become family.
