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. Written by Cyclewala Productions

Good Experimentation and Innovative
6 September 2015 | by See all my reviews
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.
