Spoilers ahead
Based on Sunil Gangopadhyay’s Hirak Deepthi, the film follows Dr. S. R. Nathan, a 52-year-old world-renowned professor of economics. A theorist to the core, he fixates on poverty and developmental issues that concern the developing world, but his personal life is a study in excess. He lives as a loner defined by heavy drinking, long smoking habits, and a pattern of self-destructive choices that ripple through his friendships and work. He moves through life with a detached, almost intellectual calm, even as his private world teeters on the edge of chaos, where risky impulses and fleeting pleasures have become a language of their own.
