Description: Sunil is alone at home when the doorbell rings. A stranger, who introduces himself as the husband of Chhaya—a woman Sunil is having an affair with—steps in. The visitor begins asking uncomfortable questions about their relationship, becoming increasingly intrusive. The tension escalates, and the man suddenly pulls out a gun, aiming it directly at Sunil. A gunshot echoes, and blood splatters on the wall. This is only the start of the unfolding drama.
As Sunil (Ranvir Shorey) prepares for a Diwali party, he is confronted by Raghav (Chandrachoor Rai), the husband of his colleague Chaya (Palomi Ghosh). Raghav is aware of Sunil’s affair with Chaya, and their confrontation turns violent. During the argument, Raghav takes his own life, leaving Sunil in a desperate situation. Before he can hide the body, his wife Malti (Mansi Multani) returns from work. Sunil confesses the incident to her, but as they debate their next steps, guests begin arriving for the party.
With no other option, Sunil and Malti conceal the body and proceed to host the gathering. The party includes a diverse group of friends: Francoise Marie (Kalki Koechlin), a mind reader; Paro (Nupur Asthana), a single mother; Joshi (Sagar Deshmukh), the party’s chef; and unexpected guests like Malti’s uncle (Manoj Pahwa) and aunt (Yamini Das).
Other attendees include Sunil’s friend Rahul (Rajat Kapoor) and his wife Sheetal (Tara Sharma), Yogesh (Cyrus), his wife Alka (Shruti Seth), and Sunil’s office colleagues, including Chaya. As the house fills with people, the evening takes a chaotic turn. Hidden rivalries surface, drunken arguments erupt, and a card game adds to the tension. The night is marked by unexpected twists, leading to damaged friendships and strained relationships.
