Spoilers ahead
The movie begins with adult Ved (Ranbir Kapoor) and Tara (Deepika Padukone) caught in a mesmerizing spectacle that vividly illustrates the dreary routine of a corporate life. A poignant flashback transports us to Shimla, where a young Ved (portrayed by Yash Sehgal) accompanies his father (played by Javed Sheikh) home from school. Captivated by the enchanting tales spun by a street storyteller (enacted by Piyush Mishra), young Ved is fascinated — not just by the stories, but by their whimsical twists and turns.
