Synopsis
A frustrated Nimisha meets a zen Aarav in a shared cab in the middle of the night. After an initial glitch, they find comfort in each other, and decide to take a detour to sit by the sea that often provides solace for the inhabitants of Mumbai. Maybe the salty breeze from the Arabian sea washes away the worries of the day, or the tender connection with a stranger in the middle of the night does it, but, slowly, Nimisha’s tough day at work melts into a soft, poignant night.
