During a study trip to the historic site of Hampi, a student named Satyam becomes uneasy about their faculty member, Shri Krishna, whose past includes serious allegations, and his unsettling attention and potential homosexual interest toward a classmate, Aditya. Meanwhile, in a series of Zoom calls, a filmmaker tries to convince Krishna to play himself in a fictional film about his own controversial life, blurring the lines between reality and storytelling.

At the same time, the students are involved in a project exploring artificial intelligence, which sparks a deeper philosophical debate about the meaning and impact of reconstructing ancient architecture.

This layered, experimental narrative weaves together personal conflict, artistic ambition, and ethical questions about history, identity, and the power of filmmaking—inviting viewers to reflect on truth, creativity, and preservation in a rapidly changing world.
