Rhythm

In the bustling backdrop of Navi Mumbai, the film follows Karthikeyan, a widowed photo‑editor for a prominent newspaper, whose days are marked by the steady rhythm of deadlines and the quiet ache of a life left half‑filled. Pressed by well‑meaning parents to find stability and happiness, he navigates a world where his professional eye captures the city’s ceaseless motion while his personal life feels paused in a lingering grief.

Across the same commuter routes, Chitra works as a bank employee and raises her young son alone after the loss of her husband. Her routine is a delicate balance of responsibility and yearning, as she juggles the practical demands of a modest career with the softer, unspoken wish for a companion who understands the weight of shared loss. Both characters share a common cultural thread—Tamil roots that echo in their conversation and the neighborhoods they call home—creating an unspoken bond that hints at deeper connections.

Their paths intersect in ordinary moments: the quiet exchange at a bank counter, a fleeting offer of a seat on a crowded train, a brief conversation about their hometowns. These encounters are painted with a gentle, hopeful tone, suggesting that everyday kindness can spark something more meaningful. The film’s atmosphere blends the hum of city life with intimate, introspective pauses, allowing the audience to feel the characters’ internal rhythms without revealing the outcomes of their budding relationship.

Through subtle glances and measured dialogue, the story invites viewers to wonder whether two widowed hearts, each carrying their own histories, can find a shared future amid the ordinary yet textured tapestry of urban India.
