In this hilariously satirical play, Rostom, an unsuccessful man, is going through a midlife crisis. He is content with his regular (though boring) office routine until his life takes an entirely unexpected course. He is forced to leave his comfortable desk to be reassigned to a location in another part of the country that requires a lot of driving. During these work trips he starts talking to the female GPS voice in his company car, gradually falling in love with her, while his life outside this virtual relationship completely falls apart.
