Set against the backdrop of Srinagar this story revolves around the life of a common man who is tired of his daily monotonous job and embarks on the path of self-discovery. After a tiring day, while listening to music on a radio, he stumbles upon a late-night radio show which motivates him with the need to find his true self. Ultimately, he builds a belief about himself that he has escaped the "matrix" and found the real way of living life. However, later in this journey, he finds himself alone, hanging in the middle of nowhere. Moreover, all his valuable things he possessed at one point in his life were no more his. Will he ever be able to find what he desires from life?
