This was an improvised play that means there was no script (as they claim). Before the start of the  play, some questions about the happenings in self life were asked to the viewers and then adding some of those details a play was prepared instantly if we believe them.

Anyway, the presentation was truly like an impromptu drama. A girl goes to pursue her studies in Uzbekistan where while she was sitting in a cab she shares her problems about her boy friend who spurned her for other. The cab driver is a young boy and empathizes with the girl student. It is pure humanity on the part of the driver but is something more for the girl. Both of them reaches the Uzbek College where the girl finds her ex-boyfriend with some other girl. The first girl is now in a fit of revenge and declares the cab driver as her new lover. . The cab driver is puzzled but ultimately things to enjoy the fun of the situation. There is no trace of study in that college and then comes a competition of best couples. The humorous thing is that the best couple is to be decided not on the basis of study but on the basis of dance and fight. And so a dance completion happens in which the second lover girl is eliminated. The whole of this impromptu script was made of these incoherent looking bits. Still there was a full comedy till the end of the play. 

The director of the play of Aditya S Kashyap who has taken good works from his actors who were, Sahir Mehta, Shantanu Anam and Shrushti Tawade, 

This was full of guffaws and surprises and the audience tasted the fun of randomness.
