[Rajan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Unrequited love is painful. People fall in love all the time but the same is not reciprocated most of the times. Many reasons may be there but the real problem starts when nice people fall for someone bad.

Nikhil got a call from his friend after midnight to meet him. When he reaches his society, he meets a girl who lives in the same society. Incidentally they are trapped in the lift and develop a bond.

The story is sweet and cute though a bit sad. It can be my fantasy too to be trapped in the lift with a beautiful girl.
4/5
