A male chauvinist who derives a strange kick out of cheating on his wife; A dutiful husband who waits patiently for his wife to shed her emotional baggae from a past relationship; A coquenttish office receptionist who is actually a call girl; An adventurous gay who is always on the prowl for soft targets… Such indeed are some of the characters around Mayank Sahai, 29, the ad-sales manager of a leading matrimony website, thematchmaker.com. Mayank thus lives in disillusionment, aspiring, with diminishing hope, to fall in love in all Utopain earnestness and with his ‘perfect woman’. The irony eventually arises when he identifies the image of his ‘perfect woman’ in an older happily married women. The dreamer in him sets aside ground realities to flow with natural impulses, leading monsoon, the first that an anticipating Mayank, experiences of the city, only makes this Utopia an even more surreal experience. Will Mayank’s romance ever strike a balance between Chimera and Actuality?
