Chhello Divas

Five college friends — Nikhil, Vicky, Loy, Pooja, and Nisha — set out in a car to a restaurant after their final-year exams, riding high on youth, camaraderie, and a reckless sense of freedom. But the night takes a sharp turn when [Vicky] is badly injured in a car crash and rushed to the hospital, launching a story that unfolds in a vivid flashback. In the morning that precedes the accident, [Nikhil] calls repeatedly, waiting for his friend to reach the college. Vicky feigns progress and even hides the truth, a ruse that backfires when his own father answers the phone and the truth lands hard: a harsh slap, an awkward question, and a family moment that foreshadows the intensity to come. The bitterness of that moment explodes later as a confrontation between friends turns physical: a bottle comes down on Nikhil’s aggressor, and the group drifts into a tea vendor’s place where they meet Naresh and then Loy, who has his own tensions about love and life. The group grows, with Dev and Dhulo joining the circle, each carrying their own temperament: Nikhil and Vicky are carefree and sometimes reckless in love, Loy is willing to push boundaries, Dev is a steady presence, and Dhulo is unapologetically aggressive when provoked.

In the classroom, new currents appear as Nikhil falls for Pooja, and the two begin a budding romance. Yet the dynamics of the group are never simple. Isha, another classmate, crosses paths with Dhulo, who misreads the moment and pushes her, then apologizes with a forceful request for forgiveness. In a separate accounts tuition, Vicky develops an attraction toward the tutor, and when the tutor’s frustration reaches a fever pitch, Dhulo bears the brunt of the teacher’s sharp discipline. The next day, the teacher refuses to continue, and Vicky places the blame squarely on Dhulo, intensifying the frictions within the circle.

Meanwhile, Loy’s life takes a more complicated turn when his father arranges a marriage to Nisha. To Loy’s chagrin, the thought of a dark-complected bride ceases to be a matter of preference once he and his friends realize Nisha is strikingly beautiful. The hope and fear of this engagement collide, but the situation shifts when Nisha expresses her wish to enroll at HD College. A family connection through [Nikhil]’s uncle helps pave the way for her admission, and soon a romance spark forms between Vicky and Nisha as well. The group all but realizes that this last day of college marks the turning point of their relationships, especially as the bonds among them grow stronger and more complicated.

As the year nears its end, Dev nudges [Nikhil] toward proposing to Pooja, but hesitation lingers. The problem isn’t only fear of rejection; it’s the sense that Pooja’s friendship with Vandana complicates the mix. Vandana — played by Vandana — is a figure from the past who adds emotional weight to the decision, and the friends counsel Nikhil to act before it’s too late. Amid the planning and pressure, Dhulo confesses his love for Isha, and while Isha hears him, she is wary, unsure, and not fully committed, choosing silence over a clear answer. The group’s loyalties, flirtations, and insecurities collide in the open, painting a portrait of friendship fraying at the edges even as affection becomes more tangible.

Throughout these memories, a quiet thread emerges: Vicky eventually acknowledges a surprising truth about the teacher who captivated him and the heady chaos of college life—that the accounts tutor he admired later married the college’s sports professor. The narrative moves back toward the present night after the final exams, where Vicky has survived the accident and is recovering, his friends close by in spirit if not in person.

The end arrives with a delicate, bittersweet beacon: Nikhil tests his courage by finally attempting to propose to Pooja, spurred by the encouragement of their friends. Yet before a clear moment can unfold, the group’s meddling interrupts, and Pooja herself confesses her love to Nikhil, a small triumph that fills Isha with joy. In the chaos that follows, a playful moment turns dramatic when the chocolate Isha has been enjoying gets stuck in her throat. Pooja’s gentle back-beat helps dislodge it, but Dhulo’s boundaries flare once more as he intervenes physically, drawing the scene to a tense, ambiguous close. The film ends with a moment of celebration shadowed by unresolved feelings, a reminder that love, friendship, and consequence are never neatly finished.
