Rancho is a rich man’s son in India, while Farhan and Raju are from an average family.
Farhan had a dream of being a wildlife photographer, but his father insisted he studies
engineering because it had his wish. Raju has come to study to uplift his family’s fortunes
because he is from an impoverished family. Rancho’s passion is earning knowledge rather

first in the examination.

that Chatur's company is interested in. A flabbergasted Chatur accepts
defeat as the rest of the group run away from him laughing.

Overall the movie presents the philosophy of a
misfit in a well-structured, cut-throat
competitive world. Also, the movie provides an
alternate possibility of an excellence based
education system and its merits.
