Spoilers ahead
Remo is a wealthy, easygoing man whose charm masks a stubborn naiveté. His life takes a sharp turn when his mischievous half-brother, Siddarth, introduces him to Sophie, and he falls in love with her and soon marries her.
Trouble arrives with the appearance of Sunny, Sophie’s ex, who along with Sophie hatches a diabolical plan to murder Remo by what looks like a natural death. Their scheme involves manipulating a dangerous moment—threatening with fake bullets to create a scenario where Remo would die from an asthma attack, all in a way that would raise no immediate suspicion. Sunny fires the gun, and Remo is killed, the bullets turning out to be real, a trap Siddharth has carefully set in motion.
