Plot
Abdul is a truck driver plagued with severe alcoholism and depression that causes him to want to end his life. One day, another truck driver shows him a newspaper advertisement that offers help for suicide-ridden youth. Abdul decides to try them out and travels all the way to the countryside. Once there, he is joined by four other youths, including a printing press proof-reader, Prakash Raikar; a young woman, Maya, who had been molested and hates men, as well as two other males, including Sunil, who is gay. They meet with the person who placed the advertisement, a wheelchair-using former Indian Army Major, Vishwas Sawant, and his assistant, Vasu Mudaliar. The two are escaped convicts by the names of Jagga and Badri, who seek their patients' deaths.
