SYNOPSIS

[EN] Aliz’s dinner with his flatmate takes an unexpected turn when Sushil arrives with his girlfriend, Kavya—someone Aliz had no prior knowledge of. As the evening unfolds, the couple’s chemistry intensifies Aliz’s inner turmoil. After excusing himself, Aliz is visited by Sushil, who thanks him for covering for him—admitting he hadn’t planned anything and had used Aliz’s dinner to impress Kavya. When Sushil asks if he disrupted something special, Aliz withholds the truth. Later that night, Aliz glimpses the couple making love and is confronted by his own reflection—revealing his jealousy and buried desire for Sushil. A sudden noise forces him to retreat, though the couple senses they were being watched. Right after, Aliz and Sushil meet in the kitchen, but neither confront the obvious—leaving their true emotions unspoken.
