Experiencing Interruptions?

Ishtehaar

Mohan, 29, is living in the city with his wife whom he recently got married to. He seems to have a normal life which he’s trying to transform. Meanwhile, he indulges himself into the city life and his new relation with wife so much that the essence of his belongingness to village and the innocence he once carried starts vanishing day by day.
Eventually, his life takes a turn when he finds himself in a loop over an advertisement he came across to. It was an advertisement that he could not forget and that single hand written text on a piece of paper leads him to places he had never been to, to people he never met. His life goes through a slow passage and he starts joining the dots by delving into the details to find the answers.
Mohan adds up a challenge in his life, a challenge to find the writer of this particular Advertisement. He made it a mission to find out the person who disturbed the peace of Mohan’s life just with a few words. It affected him so much that his personal life got disturbed and he started facing issues with his wife. He stopped smiling and his mind knitted plans to find that mystery man, whereas at the same time he was losing his grip over the reality.
As a part of his plan, he decides to take it to other level and changes the Ad.
This one act, turns the game upside down. But side by side, his excessively increased engagement in his mystery plan hampers his bond with his wife. Not only that, there is also a constant call, that should have his immediate attention, is being ignored.
After weeks, Mohan finally grabs an opportunity to confront his mystery man but by the time the mystery unfolds… it is too late.
