==Plot==
This film has a strikingly different storyline. It tells the tale of George ([[Tota Roy Choudhury]]), Rishin ([[Jisshu Sengupta]]) and his wife Mayuri ([[Swastika Mukherjee]]). When George takes up a [[contract killing]] assignment from Rishin, he doesn't know his target and client are the same person. Rishin is a schizophrenic who wants himself dead. On realising this, George is torn between his professional ethics and a genuine concern for a fellow human being. Things get complicated when George comes to know Rishin's wife Mayuri is his ex-girlfriend. Mayuri tries to convince him against killing her husband. Meanwhile, George and Rishin have also bonded over a common passion, music. The film explores the dynamics of this complex scenario.
