Plot summary
Naina Talwar studies medicine in Mumbai and feels that life is passing her by, held back by her controlling parents. Running into an old classmate, Aditi Mehra, makes her want more, so she joins a hiking trip in the Himalayas without telling her parents. On the trek she reconnects with Aditi, with Kabir Thapar, called Bunny, who is charming and ambitious and dreams of traveling the world, and with Avinash Arora, known as Avi, who cares about drink, women and betting. Naina's feelings for Bunny deepen as the trip goes on. Avi's flirting with another trekker makes Aditi jealous, and the others see that she cares for him and that he does not feel the same. Bunny is set on leaving India to study journalism in Chicago.
