It is an anthology based on five stories, with a slice of lives of a few people, all culminating on New Year’s eve. There’s a radio jockey, who is also a stand-up comedian with a grief struck heart; a constable who hates his job; an anti-social thug who hates any kind of celebration; an IT techie who thinks new year’s eve is just another day; and a manager of car showroom who is unhappy with his orthodox wife. Desperately in search of a meaningful life, the New Year changes their perspectives forever.
