Plot
Nikunj (Pratik Gandhi) and Shreya (Deeksha Joshi) work for a software company where they are QA lead and an app developer respectively. Nikunj's career takes a turn for worse when during one of the presentations of a new app to client Mr. Shroff (Jaimini Pathak) it crashes. The entire blame is transferred to Nikunj but already being overworked he decides to quit the job. He tries to get a job at different companies in Ahmedabad but since they can't match the package he finds himself jobless. During one such interview visits, he has food outside and realizes he can do a better job of cooking. Since he likes cooking and finds it relaxing too, he decides to pursue his passion as a career.
As Nikunj progresses through his business he soon realizes he can't manage the orders through traditional methods. That’s when Shreya proposes he should build an app and Nikunj decides to have Shreya onboard to handle the technology and marketing side of things. As the startup grows, work hours become unmanageable causing trouble in maintaining the work-life balance for both the partners, especially for Shreya as she is about to marry a doctor who is skeptical about the startup idea. Nikunj and Shreya deal with challenges in finding the right investor, keeping the business afloat and while doing so also managing their personal life challenges. As they fail to find the investor, their startup has burnt through all the money and all of their staff has either left or has been relieved due to finances. The duo go to deliver an order who is a regular customer who turns out to be Mr. Shroff. He listens to their challenges and asks them to pitch their startup to him for venture capital.
