Over a monsoon-soaked day in a crumbling Mumbai building, a young masseuse moves quietly from body to body. Her caring touch soothes the pain of an ailing, bedridden woman, and the anxiety of a new mother, exhausted by duty and desire. As care slips toward intimacy, her hands become a conduit through which life, death, and desire pass without resolution.
Vilom, a lonely, isolated young man from India, is obsessed with becoming internet-famous and deeply confused about his sexuality. When he moves in with Amay, a dynamic, openly gay hairdresser, and Nivi, a beautiful struggling actress, he finds that they are both slowly falling in love with him. This sudden love triangle leads to even more confusion, forcing Vilom to examine his sexual and romantic wants and needs on an even deeper level. Meanwhile, societal pressures and prejudices are beginning to build just outside the walls of their home.
The story revolves around Shalini, a single mother dealing with work and family issues while working in the security department of a nightclub. When a security breach shakes her workplace, the management enforces a new policy: mandatory smartwatches for all staff members to track their movements. Blamed for her team's incompetence, Shalini is pressured to enforce the device's usage or face severe consequences. Adding to her challenges is a young recruit from her village whose resistance further complicates Shalini's position. These seemingly innocuous devices, promoted as tools for safety and efficiency, soon reveal a darker purpose.
