A young girl experiences a certain dream since childhood. She watches a certain someone whom she doesn't know. She hasn't met the person ever in her life. But she feels an attachment to the person in her dreams. Adding...
Vineet and Ruhana seem to experience the same hazy visuals. They barely know each other, but their thought processes are on the same track, and they are anxious to learn more about the two people they have seen in their dreams. For Vineet, it’s a girl whom he calls Ishika, but he barely knows anyone by that name. On the other hand, Ruhana is surprised that she sees herself as Ishika in her dreams, and she’s in a dilemma, wondering if Vineet is Samrat. Overall, they are both confused and agitated by the dreams they’re experiencing.
They know that all of this has a deeper meaning, and they’re determined to find it.

Vineet makes a note of these visuals in a notebook where he has written his previous dream sequences. As he reads through all of them, he’s shocked by the analysis.
There are some common elements in all the dream sequences:
“Beach”
“He’s convincing a girl — Ishu!”
“And Ishu is shouting at him.”
“Some moments of love.”
“The scared voice of Ishu, she’s trying to question him.”
He is convinced that he’s the main protagonist of his dreams and now, he needs to find Ishu, but where can he find her? He doesn’t even know if she exists in this world. Sometimes, Vidhi teases him that he should find someone named “Ishu” and marry her. Only Vidhi in the family knows about his dreams.
He is also boggled as he remembers Ruhana saying that his voice is the same as the one she heard in her dreams. He doesn’t know what to do. He wants to ask her if they have met before or if she knows him, but things are getting trivial. He really wants to meet her now.
*****
Ruhana tells everything about her dreams to her dad. She makes it clear to them that this is something she ahs been experiencing every night and it’s happening since along time. It’s useless for her mom to blame it to her habit of reading or watchign netflix. Her dad is shocked to read the diary. He remembers how his mother tries to remind him to listen to Ruhana or at least consult a psychologist. Ruhana sits on her knees before her dad.
“Dad, I know, you must be thinking of it as nonsense. But it is not. This beach sequence is frequent. I watch it every day. It feels like I am the girl with some guy. His name is Samrat. But I don’t know any Samrat.” She says, her tone gentle yet agitated.
