Synopsis
Candy
A poet falls in love with an art student, who gravitates to his bohemian lifestyle — and his love of heroin. Hooked as much on one another as they are on the drug, their relationship alternates between states of oblivion, self-destruction, and despair.
Lekh
During their teen years, Rajvir and Ronak are attracted to one another but never act on their feelings. As years go on and they drift apart, they are reunited by fate and rediscover their attraction.
