Pooja bumps into Rahul and they both fall in love. But their happiness won't last too long. Soon their love fades into futility. More and more they become part of an emotional and aesthetic system, consisting of codecs, loops and variations. Situations reincarnate. Pooja and Rahul don't even realize that they've become victims of a filmi masala formula that starts taking over control of their lifes. Will they ever find a way out of this trap... ?
