Plot

The story centres around the titular character, Siddharth Roy (played by Deepak Saroj), a young man who approaches life with a strictly logical and emotionless perspective. He believes that life is governed by basic needs like food, sleep, and intimacy, and he maintains an emotionally detached demeanor. However, his worldview is challenged when he meets Indumathi (played by Tanvi Negi), a woman who believes in emotions and values that contradict his logical mindset. As Siddharth falls in love with Indumathi, he grapples with the complexities of love and emotions, which clash with his previously held beliefs. The story unfolds as Siddharth navigates this new emotional landscape, leading to an internal conflict and a transformation in his character. The plot also includes a mystery surrounding Indumathi's sudden departure from his life, leaving Siddharth to question whether she will return or if he must change for her.
