Synopsis

This is a modern adaptation of William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, set in the corporate world. Theatre artists Peter and Nikhil think they have landed a very lucrative gig – they have been hired to conduct theatre workshops at a large organization as part of a team-building exercise. But since this story is based on a Shakespearean farce, things are going to get messy pretty soon. For one thing, the HR manager, Om, and the Senior VP, Tilottama, happen to be a divorced couple and are at loggerheads with each other. Om is also none too pleased about his niece, Haritha, dating her colleague, Liyaqat. Furthermore, the careerist Dharmesh and the happy-go-lucky Himani have their own set of relationship issues and existential dilemmas. And, at the centre of it all, there is a bizarre twist involving hypnotism.
