Ishq Vishk Rebound

It's said when you fall in love,

you see your special someone's face in everyone else's.

But this isn't one of those stories.

It's like that dialogue.

"A guy and a girl can't just be friends."

"You fall in love only once in your life."

"Turn around, turn around, just turn around once."

"You came in my life and my heart just started singing."

Damn it.

Turn around.

Hi, ma'am.

Raghav Pandit.

Do you remember our first meeting?

Those two lines sound pretty romantic, don't they?

Don't be fooled.

I'm not trying to act fresh with you,

but your writing is quite fresh.

The "writing" is the real hero of this play.

Here.

- You took your own sweet time to call. - Ouch.

Well, ma'am...

And you're taking way too much time to write.

When am I getting the film's climax?

Today, ma'am, for sure.

That's what you said yesterday and the day before.

We are casting and prepping

and we don't have the end!

Sorry, ma'am.

This is a very big opportunity, Raghav.

Everyone here thinks I gave you a chance

because we're both from Dehradun and you're somewhat cute.

But I'm not that shallow or large-hearted.

I took a huge risk by offering you

a whole film based on just a play.

Because I found both your writing and your life quite interesting.

What?

You have time until tomorrow morning.

Ma'am...

Writing can be really tough,

just like love, you know.

Or maybe we're the ones who end up complicating both of them.

These days even movies start from the end, don't they?

And as Chris Martin said,

let's go back to the start.

This is me, obviously.

And this is Sanya.

And he's Sahir.

We were even cuter than this when we were kids.

And we've been really close ever since then.

You know, BFFs?

As we grew up,

I fell in love with reading and writing

and these two... fell in love with each other.

So my childhood buddies became lovers

and I became their third wheel.

Yuck!

Delete.

There's an old saying, "Where there's love, there's conflict."

And that definitely applies to them.

I mean, their screenplay was full of conflict,

no shortage of that.

They used to break up more than they'd make out.

But they had an amazing common quality.

They were experts at cajoling each other.

Sometimes I felt like patching things up was actually their own language of love.

They had another thing in common. Daddy issues.

Sahir's father had dreamt of a future for his son

and the son was trying his best to fulfill those dreams.

And Sanya had expectations from her father,

But she got really disappointed and was giving up on her dreams.

Sanya, what's all this nonsense?

Nationals are just around the corner.

I don't think I want to play golf anymore.

I didn't have any of those issues in my house.

My family life is full of fun and games, you know.

Mom and Dad are always playing games, having fun

and I just make fun of them.

So basically, there was no

shortage of love in my life.

I was surrounded by love.

And my best friends were really the best.

Everything was perfect.

What could possibly go wrong? Right?

I punched them so hard.

Left, right and centre!

Not just Misha, they won't look at any other girl now!

I just kept bloody punching them.

- It's hurting. - Sorry.

- It's hurting. - Sorry!

Tomorrow, at the sugar factory,

we have a protest to save the environment we live in.

To save the air we breathe.

Please come tomorrow at 5:00 pm.

This is an urgent call.

Here you go.

- Excuse me. - Let's go!

Excuse me?

If you don't want to read it, just return it.

Why did you have to go and do that?

Just stop wasting paper.

If you're so worried about the environment,

why don't you just WhatsApp it instead?

What's the need to print it out?

Stop wasting paper. Let's go.

Save soil, save earth!

Save soil, save earth!

Save soil, save earth!

Save soil, save earth!

Guess what, boys!

I got a tattoo!

Come on, Sanya. You could've done a new piercing...

That's... that's really nice.

Babe, I'm really sorry. I got to leave. Okay?

- Bye. - Listen, Raghav.

Yeah?

You're not cheating on your friends

when you're spending time with me.

You understand that, right?

Of course, babe.

You know you'll have to introduce me to them eventually.

I mean, if you're serious about us, that is.

Anyway, you carry on.

It's a big day for you. I don't want to spoil your mood.

Enjoy.

Hey, guys! Oh wow!

Where have you been?

- We've been waiting for you! - Not fair!

One second, one second.

Guys, everyone, meet...

This is Riya, my girlfriend.

Wow, brother! Congratulations!

My brother has got home two trophies!

- Hello! - Hi!

Let's celebrate!

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Sanya, you knew this is what was going to happen.

Yeah, I knew.

But now that it's finally happening, I have a right to be mad, don't I?

I know. Right?

But the sooner you accept it, the better...

What all do you expect me to accept?

Sanya, my institute is literally just an hour away from here.

And if you're driving, it's only half an hour.

That's not the point.

San... Sanya!

I'm done with this relationship.

I can't do this anymore.

Hello, Raghav?

Are you even listening?

Do we have to do this now?

Excuse me?

Do you realize I'm going through a breakup here?

I'm sorry, but the timing is really bad.

What do you mean, Raghav?

What does this have to do with timing?

Riya, Sanya is going through a breakup.

She goes through one every other day!

But this is the first time we're going through one.

We're breaking up?

I really need you right now.

What the hell, dude!

How can we break up? We were just about to...

That's exactly why!

We were going to make love for the first time

and you answered your phone!

Nothing is more important for you than your friends,
