Summary
It is the story of Dale, in which reality and fantasy intermingle so that the viewer is left to wonder at all times if a scene (or all scenes) are actual or Dale's imagination. Dale's hard exterior is a mask to hide his very fragile shattered interior. Dale has longed for his best friend since childhood, the "straight" Raj and has developed very romantic feelings towards him. Dale is shocked when Raj asks him to become his best man at a hastily arranged wedding with Veena, a children's teacher. But there is more to it, since it turns out she is terminally ill and has only a few months to live.
