Living with carefully cultivated nonchalance amidst the rough and tumble of Delhi's journalistic world, Ari occasionally grapples with a desire to do more than just flirt with ideas and flog the words. But he leads his life, inured to fights small and big, professional and ideological, awaiting fate, surrendering to the force of the flow of life, like a riverstone - supine in the riverbed, always facilitating persistent currents, never contesting them.

Just when the latent fear of a meaningless life threatens to convince him of its reality, he finds himself caught in a tragic situation.
