“Life is beautiful…”, it is always said, and for Rohit Avasti (25), this seems to be very true. Though his job as a junior accountant with “Trendz”, a leading fashion magazine, is not very promising, he is still enjoying every bit of it because that’s the only way and place where he can meet Simran…Simran Kapoor (24), his love, his obsession, his goal in life.

Rohit’s friend Kabir (26) has made several attempts to warn Rohit that Simran is only manipulating him for her personal gains, but fails to succeed, and it is in this scenario, that Soha is introduced to Rohit.

Soha (24) is aware of Rohit’s one-sided unconditional love for Simran, yet finds it difficult to hold herself back. Coming from a disturbed family background, she craves for a strong relationship, with a caring man who can heal her deep wounds. Her heart beats faster whenever she is with him and reiterates the fact that she is indeed in love with him.

Soha’s mystic persona draws Rohit closer to her. His otherwise dull life is sprinkled with colors of Soha’s virgin love and charm. Both of them hold hands to walk the aisle under the rainbow unaware of the dark clouds hovering above them.

Just when things were going good for Rohit and he was basking in Soha’s love, he is made to participate in a bet without his consent…by whom and why??? Rohit fails to understand. The bet… “a pregnant lady whom Rohit does not know is about to deliver a baby. If she delivers a baby girl Rohit stands to win rupees 3 lakhs in cash and if in case she delivers a baby boy Rohit will get nothing.”

Though not wanting to, Rohit wins the bet and earns Rs 3 lakhs but who is playing this game with him, he wonders again. This is when he is lured into the second bet. This time the stakes are higher and so is the risk. Life is not only beautiful but also very grateful, Rohit thinks, for love is smiling at him on one end and on the other the goddess of wealth.

He plunges himself in the second betting willingly and wins Rs 7 lakhs and now the battle of love and greed starts. The beautiful life that promised happiness and bliss is now spitting fire of disaster. Friends have become foes. The greed for money has overshadowed the brightness of love. The last bet for one crore rupees turns ugly and Rohit is framed for a murder which he did not commit. The fight for truth begins and the ensuing drama unfolds a story never told before.

Though dark, at times the narrative has a subtle humor. It is a love story spiced up with thrills, nail biting suspense, electrifying pace with unexpected twists…. It’s a game, which has a beginning but no end, and Rohit Avasti is a part of it. What began as a simple fun game has become a bizarre bloody ordeal.

Rohit, who always wanted to make it big, but had no means and when he had it…life had some other bloody plans for him.
