Perspective
Nanki Dutta is a songwriter for her boyfriend, Vijay "VJ" Pratap Singh's band. She finds herself in a dilemma when Tanu Kumar, a new student in her university who has a crush on VJ, joins in the #MeToo movement accusing him of having sexually assaulted her on the night of Valentine's 2018 on Twitter. Nanki attempts help Vijay by consulting Danish Ali Baig, the lawyer investigating VJ's side of the story. Throughout the movie, we experience Nanki's frequent panic attacks and hallucinations based on the recent incident. Later on in the movie, Danish wins the case and Vijay is released much to Tanu's dismay. VJ tells Nanki that he has cheated on her by sleeping with Tanu, but did not assault her. However, Nanki remains suspicious due to inconsistencies with the case. During a festival held at the campus, Tanu explains every detail of what happened during the fateful night while exposing her true intentions and feeling towards Vijay. Nanki deduces Tanu's #MeToo tweet and ties every loose end cited throughout the film and comes to the realization that Tanu told the truth all along that Vijay is actually a demon and raped Tanu when his ego got hurt. Vijay's crime gets reported by Nanki and is arrested by the local authorities. Soon after, Nanki gains the courage to share her own experience with sexual abuse, when she was 13 years old, encouraged by a relieved Tanu.
