Ee Nagaraniki Emaindhi · written by Tharun Bhascker Dhaassyam · 2017
Scene 4 of 130 · ≈ 2 min on screen · Act one
Reunited three years after a car crash scattered them into hollow versions of success, four friends stumble into a bachelor-party trip to Goa where making one last short film forces them to confront the heartbreak, cowardice, and unfinished business each of them has been outrunning.
Karthik, Vivek, Kaushik and Upendra argue over what genre to make their short film in, ending in a fire that flips the car.
Three years on, Karthik wins a wine-tasting bet at his boss's club to impress a stranger.
Karthik steps in to smooth over three underdressed guys the bouncer is turning away.
