Spoilers ahead
Ravi, a young man from a modest, middle-class background, navigates everyday life with a cautious view shaped by his thrifty father. His father, Kota Srinivasa Rao, runs a small business and keeps a tight rein on money, which in turn influences Ravi’s sense of responsibility and his attitude toward relationships. Ravi’s closest ally is his best friend Aparna, commonly called Apu, who shares a flat in the same building and has stood by him through thick and thin. Their bond is easy and understanding, built on years of shared moments, yet neither can quite name the deeper feelings simmering beneath the surface.
