In India, and most of Asia, if you are thirty years old and still unmarried, you are considered problematic, unworthy, damaged, etc., etc..
Meet three friends - Raghav, Eshwar and Bhuvana, who are on the verge of turning fifty and still unmarried. After spending years apart, they come back together to create a semblance of home and family. And then there are Varun, aged 37, Nirgala, aged 34 and Vishnu Dyuthi, aged 27, who are all in different trajectories of being old enough and yet unmarried. Together, these six misfits of different generations build the 'Apolonian Abode', their home away from societal pressure.
Raghav is the Vice President in a global transportation company, a hopeless romantic nursing a terrible heartbreak for more than 20 years, in a serious burnout phase, who gets triggered to quit his job and pursue a medical degree at the age of 50.
Eshwar is a closeted gay architect who feigned a heartbreak to not get married and stayed an outcast from his family till the death of his brother forces him to shoulder his forsaken responsibilties.
Bhuvana, a public-policy maker, ran away from home in her 20s to escape a malicious marriage arranged by her step-mother, only to end up being estranged from her entire family for decades.
Varun, a distant cousin of Buvana, has a heavy baggage of abandonment issues, making him commitment-phobic, a nomad in relationships, a pessimist who has a sharp tongue and minimum regard for others' feelings.
Nirgala is a tough, rational, extremely logical and controlling, yet very much empathetic Senior Engineer who uproots her established life in Germany and moves back to India to be with her pain inflicting family.
Vishnu Kirthi is a Business Analyst & an amateur artist who had always been uncomfortable about marrying a stranger through arranged marriage. A slow-burn type of person, she has the misfortune of ending up divorced after an abusive marriage of three-months, and ends up swearing off marriage and relationships.
