Storyline
A young man in his haste to go some place takes two actions - he screams
at his mother for making him late, and he lovingly appreciates his
brother's painting. By doing so, he strikes off two cycles - one of
frustration and sorrow and the other of love and joy. His mother vents
out her anger on her maidservant. His brother gifts the painting to his
girl friend. Thus begins the cycles of sorrow and joy, forming a Domino
stairway, leading to an unknown doorway. After shaking hands with 15
other characters and traveling through 17 locations, in just two shots,
both the cycles meet at the end in an attempt to give a logical
understanding to the seemingly absurd human life. It's a humorous look
at the bizarreness of the cosmic accident, otherwise known as life.

Good Experimentation and Innovative
A beautiful narrative
of nuclear chain of events that happens due to the first two actions by
the same person. First action which evokes anger in the first person,
leading to the spreading of anger and unhappiness across the streets and
throughout the day. Second action, which evokes love, encouragement to
progress and again spreads viral everywhere with all the positiveness
until it saves his own life. Beautifully coordinated and connected
screenplay, i feel its better than Vantage point. This is an
experimental movie in the Bollywood and setting these new trend for
people to follow. Akash Gandhi, would like to see more of these...Takes
less than 30mins of your time , Must watch for all.

Music Trivia

- The voices in the songs "Jheeni" & "Red Blossom Cherry" are Sachin Sanghvi, Naresh Iyer and Amit Trivedi.
- "Jheeni" is a modified lyric from the 15th Century mystic poet Kabir's song "Jheeni re chadariya".
- The song "Red Blossom Cherry" is inspired from a Zen Story. In the story, a man is being chased by a vicious snake till he reaches the edge of a cliff. He jumps from the fear of the snake, and clings to a tree. There's a landing ground below, but before he can land, he hears a lion's roar from below. The branch he's clinging to starts dangling. In the midst of all this, he spots a Cherry. He plucks it and eats it. The snake of the past, the lion of the future and the cherry of now!
