==Plot==
In 2020, three young blokes with nothing in common between them— Jil, Jung, and Juk —are assigned the task of transporting an Ambassador car coated with cocaine paint by the dreaded drug lord Dheivanayagam. Along the way, they encounter Narasimhan, who has an almost identical car. Narasimhan makes small talk and tries to gel with the trio. After a night of drinking, the trio escapes the pub without his knowledge, but only later do they realize that, in a drunken stupor, they have taken Narasimhan's car and not their own.
