Original subtitles

"Did I write this destiny myself,"

"Or was I written into it?"

"Every face looks so helpless"

"In this dreamlike world."

"I'm a lover of love, moving to your rhythm."

"Show me the way."

"Are you a riddle"

"Or perhaps a story untold?"

Good morning, Nayan. Wake up.

Good morning, Nayan. Wake up.

I don't understand.

- Same dream again. - Oh, same dream?

I don't remember my dreams.

Yes, this is one of the side effects people are reporting.

They do not remember their dreams anymore.

Because of constant use of microchip,

it gets difficult to distinguish

between what is dream and what is imagination.

With any new technology, our body takes time to keep up with it.

Did you see any new details?

Or was it exactly the same?

Exactly the same dream.

I still wasn't able to see her face today.

Some of those places...

unknown, yet so familiar.

I don't know if it's making any sense to you.

As per your description, seems like it's your imagination.

No.

It's not my imagination.

Wish I could see her face.

For some reason, I can't seem to forget that dream.

As if it's constantly running in the back of my head.

I wish I could figure out those places.

If you describe it accurately, then it's possible.

Really? Let's do it then.

Before that,

you have a couple of urgent messages from Shrikant and Anurag.

Skip Shrikant. Read Anurag's message.

Hi, Nayan, just to remind you that your deadline is due tomorrow.

I hope you've cracked the story.

Can't wait to hear it from you.

Message over.

Open my story notes.

One more thing, Nayan, you have a date in half an hour.

What would you like to do?

Find the dream location, crack the story or go on a date?

By the way, don't even bother about asking me my profile name.

If you would've come 10 minutes later, I would've joined...

Fifty shades of grey.

- Let's go for drinks? - Sure.

Rajnish,

why can't I find my soulmate, man?

I mean I keep wondering why am I so damn unlucky?

When I watch my favourite love stories,

and I see two people connecting on deeper levels,

falling in love with each other, I wonder "Why can't I have that?"

Something like that I-

I want that in my life.

Good Evening Nayan, You got another message from Shrikant.

Do you want me to play?

Yes.

Hey, It's me again. I know why you're not answering my calls.

Still I am inviting for tomorrow. Call me when you are free.

- Call Shrikant. - Okay, calling Shrikant.

Actually drop the call.

Call dropped.

Okay, show me my story notes.

Show me some quotes by Philip Dick.

There is no route out of the maze.

The maze shifts as you move through it because it is alive.

Save this quote for me.

Okay. Saving this quote.

And remind me to buy the physical copy of this Philip Dick book.

Okay. Done.

Reminder to attend Rajnish's Birthday Party tomorrow.

- So how's work? - All good.

Nice to see you.

It's been a while.

It's been a while man, you know I am just figuring...

- Hey, Mayur. - Hey, Mr. Robot.

- How are you? - How are you?

All well.

- Hey, happy birthday, Rajnish. - Thank you.

Hey last time you narrated a story, is it complete?

The concept was very interesting.

I'm still working on it. No, it's not complete yet.

It's your take on some old classic film, right?

It's probably some old French film.

Anyway, these days nobody does anything original.

Rajnish, it's not about where you take it from.

It's about where you take it to.

Hello?

Yes, Shrikant? Okay, sure I'll pick you up.

I'm just going to pick up Shrikant and I'll be right back.

That's fine.

You know what? I have no idea

what the issues are between the both of you.

What's happened?

Shrikant is here.

- Hey bro, how are you? - How are you?

Good?

Good.

- Hey Shrikant. - Hey, Mayur, How are you?

- All well. - Fantastic.

So, what's happening?

Guys, I want to share some news with you.

I'll show you something.

How do we differentiate between fake and real by what we feel is real?

Once you feel an emotion...

whether it is fake, implanted, true,

it just feels truthful.

It just feels real.

Have you ever wanted to go to Mt. Everest, but couldn't go?

Maybe an expedition in Antarctica?

Maybe you want to complete the unfinished conversation

with someone close to you who passed away?

We at Simulacra, can provide that experience to you

by implanting these memories inside you

which for you will be as real as reality.

This is all very interesting.

Finally Me and Manasa have adopted a girl.

She is 10.

I am sure, you guys have thought well before taking this decision.

Don't you think they will find it difficult

to accept each other as mother and daughter?

Regarding this, I want to share something.

Using this Simulacra's technology,

we have implanted few memories in Manasa's and Swara's brain.

Which will help them to have relationship

like real mother and daughter.

Today is Rajnish Uncle's Birthday. Wish him.

Happy Birthday Rajnish uncle.

Good girl, Swara.

Eat your food, Come on. Do you need some more juice?

You guys can't spend even a little time without technology?

What happens if either of these two comes to know

that these memories are fake,

then?

See human mind and emotions are very complex.

Suppose someone has implanted fake memories in your mind.

How would you feel?

Philosia, same dream again.

I think, until I crack this dream,

I won't be able to crack my story either.

Even this time her face was not visible.

Okay, Philosia, tell me. Is there any way to crack the locations?

By analyzing your data,

I can suggest you these locations.

I think, it was a seaside mountain.

Here are the options.

Also if I am not wrong, there was a bench on the cliff.

These are the options with a bench.

Open option number 1. - Opening option number 1.

Interesting. It's Cornwall.

Cornwall.

Strange, I've-

I've never been to Cornwall.

Anurag calling.

Oh shit!

My draft isn't ready yet. I don't know what I'm going to do.

As you said earlier, to crack the story crack the dream.

To crack the story, crack the dream...

Searching for people you have met before.

This will take some time.

Once the search is finished, you will be notified.

Search finished.

Hi.

Hi.

Do you remember me?

The oldest pickup line.

Not interested.

If you don't mind, could you please share your chip passcode?

I found a picture of you in my memory.

I really think we've met somewhere.

It's not that hard to find someone's picture.

That too in this day and age.

We've never met before, trust me.

You sure? - Mhm.

There's a bookstore here.

It has the Philip Dick book you wanted to buy.

How do we differentiate between fake and real by what we feel is real?

Once you feel an emotion...

whether it is fake, implanted, true...

it just feels truthful.

It just feels real.

You? Here as well?

You're stalking me?

Am I a stalk- No I'm not stalking you.

I'm here to buy a book.

Really? Which one?

I think it's not available here.

I know you're lying.

Why would I lie?

I came here and coincidentally bumped into you. That's all.

By the way, which book are you looking for?

Uh- - And...

why don't you use a microchip?

I don't use it much.

Okay.

Why don't you tell me the name of the book? I'll scan it for you.

I can't find it yet, but...

I'm pretty sure I'll find it here.

How can you be so sure?

My gut feeling.

Never goes wrong.

Really?

Technology can be wrong too.

Nothing is foolproof, you see.

Maybe.

I only offered because it saves a lot of time.

Agreed.

But I was addicted, and to get out of this was...

quite difficult, you know?

It actually reminds me of a... Sorry.

Reminds me of this quote.

There's no route out of the maze...

The maze shifts as you move through it.

Because it is alive. - Because it is alive.

Ma'am, this is your book.

Thank you. - Shit.

One second.

You won't believe, I was here to buy this book, Phillip Dick.

The same.

I would like to have another copy of the same book.

Oh, sorry. We have just one book left.

Okay.

Would you like this?

No thanks, that's okay.

I'm Nivi, by the way. Hi.

Hi, I'm Nayan. - Hi, Nayan.

Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too, Nivi.

Are you sure, you don't want this?

No it's okay. You can keep it.

I do have a digital copy. But you know what...

...nothing beats the physical copy.

Really. - I know right.

Truly get what you mean.

Shall we? - Yes.

This way - I think...

This way... - Yes this way.

So, Tell me.

Why did you feel that we've met before?

The red jacket you have on, - Right.

I remember moments where you're wearing the same jacket.

What nonsense!

Okay, if we've met, tell me where and when?

Okay, let me think.

I guess it was some resort by the beach.

And out of nowhere a Spanish couple started fighting...

and both of us we were right there.

Right?

(Foreign Language)

Do you know French? That was French right?

- I think that was Spanish. - Is it?

- Yes. - Okay.

I am Nayan.

I am Nivi.

By the way which book are you reading?

Simulacra and Simulation by Jean Baudrillard

Then you ask me what book I was reading.

I said Memetic Desire by Girad.

As we both started to enjoy the conversation...

...I asked if you will like to explore the resort together...

and you agreed to it.

So, we started exploring the resort and...

And I'm pretty sure we've never met.

Okay.

If we have met, where do you think we met and when?

Can you be more specific? Like specific time,date or month?

So basically you want to test me right now?

- Okay sure. - Yes.

So we...

...the date and month...

This is strange...

Why can't I recollect?

You know, you remember the whole memory...

but you don't remember when we met?

And you expect me to believe you?

Really? You expect me to believe you?

I really think you are making all of this up

and all this is your imagination.

This is not my imagination and I am not making this up.

Then how do I believe you?

I remember meeting you. Just give me a moment.

Let me just try to recollect.

Woodbury Resort

- Wait - Yes

- Did you say Woodbury Resort? - Yes

That's strange.

I did a solo trip 6 months ago to Woodbury Resort.

- Alone - Okay

-I remember that French couples fight. - Exactly

(Foreign Language)

Nivi I am sure, we are not talking about different couples.

Are you still stuck on the same thing?

How do you not remember? Everything happened in front of us.

When we haven't met at all, how will there be remembrance?

I have been trying to make you understand since long...

...but still you are so confident.

Now I feel like you're taking me for someone else.

Okay.

That's fine.

You went to woodbury park...

maybe you met another girl,

...you spent time with her and now you are mistaking me for her.

What? One second.

Nivi I don't know if you are serious or just kidding.

No, what do you think?

I can’t tell the difference between you and someone else?

Clearly you can’t.

You only think. You have to take so much effort...

...just to remember everything and

still you don't remember when we met?

Seriously think about it.

Okay.

Off late I have been getting confused with lot of things...

But I am 100% sure... I know that I have met you...

we spent time together..

I know this face. I clearly...

I clearly remember you

Okay

When we met in Woodbury Park...

...How did I look?

My hairs? How was it? My dressing sense?

I remember it was a beautiful afternoon.

And I still remember your face.

You looked so pretty in your blue hair.

So we started exploring the resort.

We shared a beautiful moment when you

really opened up to me by the pool

And then suddenly one day I decided, I will live like my name.

Nivi. New every day.

That's why this hair color?

Yes.

I change it according to my mood.

By the way your name, Nivi.

Its really beautiful.

Awww. Thank you.

How?

How do I believe?

You said my hair was blue?

and that jacket?

How can anyone get such details so wrong?

Okay.

Maybe I got the details wrong because I was so lost in you.

Throughout I remember spending time with you over there.

I really feel strong connection with you Nivi.

Believe me.

Don't you even remember that moment of ours?

Which moment?

Nivi.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Its nothing just some old memories.

Nivi...

Close your eyes.

Just close them. I have a surprise for you.

Okay.

Nayan, Where are we?

What do you think?

- Can I ask you something? - Yes

Just curious. What do you always keep writing in your diary?

Come up.

Okay.

By the way, thank you Nayan. Actually...

Why are you thanking me?

Because nothing happens just like that.

You know. When we feel an intense emotion...

...many things are responsible for it.

Like now, this beautiful view,

the ocean, the birds, the sun, the mountains and you.

You are responsible for this.

So, thank you so much.

You know...

I will always remember this moment...

How will you remember this moment?

Meaning?

Let us give some name to this moment.

May be our first photograph.

I love our photograph.

You know.

Writers always narrate people their scripts for feedback.

Right?

Are you doing that right now? - Seriously?

Yes, seriously.

If this is really your story,

it's quite interesting.

Is it interesting?

I've yet to tell you the interesting part.

What?

I have one more proof.

I can tell you your favourite place in the world.

Really?

Okay. Tell me.

Sea shore.

Come on.

Almost everyone in the world loves a sea shore.

Exactly.

But who else is filled with childlike glee,

and starts jumping around after arriving at a sea shore?

"I've heard of a place beyond the sea."

"Just like the fairytales."

"If you find it let me know."

"I've heard there's a treasure trove of love."

"Full of tales."

"If you find it let me know."

"I've heard you can find the stars on land here."

"Believe me those sights are like melodious songs."

"That place is like a dreamland."

"I've heard there's a world beyond these sights."

"It's full of mirrors if you find it, tell me."

"You heard it right, there's a treasure trove of love here."

"Let's find it."

"Now that we're here let's stay back."

"We have now seen, the stars descend on land here."

"We believe now, the sights here are like melodious songs."

"This place is like a dreamland."

"We've exactly made a world like that in our hearts."

"We both are into each other."

"Together we'll make many stories."

"Hear them from me right now."

"You and I might become a new story."

So, Nivi.

Are you not that way around the sea?

Why are you smiling so much?

What?

You really don't remember what happened after that?

What?

You are very romantic and...

...also imaginative.

Nivi, you really don't remember anything

or are you doing it deliberately?

Deliberately?

I wish what you saying was true.

The kiss that you described, ufff..

It was so romantic.

But frankly I will never do such a thing.

And that too in public.

And if it really happened...

I will never forget it.

Now I get it, why are you not accepting all this.

Why?

Guilty conscience.

After this beautiful moment, you just ran away.

Without saying anything.

I was wondering if I had done something wrong.

Why should I feel guilty?

My break up was already done.

You haven't had your break up yet,

you came to decide about your break up.

By the way, you look great.

You look beautiful in this dress.

Thank you.

Where did you buy this dress from?

It's a gift from my...

boyfriend.

Boyfriend?

My ex-boyfriend.

I'm breaking up with him.

That is why came alone to this resort.

To spend some time alone and for some mental clarity.

So, technically you've not broken up yet?

No, in my mind we've already broken up.

Have you been stalking me since the resort?

Stalk? Are you serious? - Yes.

Didn't you accept that, in fact, you went through a break-up, etc, etc.?

'Cause it's... 'Cause it's the truth, Nayan.

But we've never met before.

I was in that restaurant. Alone.

Nivi.

Maybe I don't remember everything accurately.

I told you whatever I remembered.

And you yourself agreed to most of the things, right?

You know what, I'm really confused right now.

I'm not sure if you really remember everything.

Or you're pretending.

Or you've actually forgotten, or...

there is something that's holding you back.

I can't figure you out.

Me neither.

Do you really know me?

Or if this is something that you completely made up.

I know I sound like a broken record, but...

How do you know so much about me?

Because I'm feeling really confused and this is really weird for me.

You know what?

I would take confusing and weird any day over boring.

This was anything but boring, huh?

Wow.

We didn't realize how the time flew, huh?

We didn't realize.

You know, when was the last time,

I don't even remember, I had this kind of a conversation.

Really heart to heart.

This was fun.

I found your stories really fun as well, you know?

Stories?

Nivi, I don't know what to feel about it.

I mean, I'm really disappointed.

With myself, because I cannot seem to convince you.

I don't know how else to explain it to you...

that deep down I know these events are true.

And I know this for sure, Nivi.

Don't you think we have the same spark, the chemistry between us?

Listen, if- - I'm... I'm...

I'm sorry to cut you short, Nayan, but...

I really have to go.

Okay.

It was really nice meeting you.

See you. - See you.

Sorry, I forgot to share my chip code.

- See you... - See you...

There is no route out of the maze.

The maze shifts as you move through it.

- Because it is alive. - Because it is alive.

Just curious. What do you always keep writing in your diary?

Philosia, play this file.

Okay, playing the audio file.

Rajnish, Why cant I find my soulmate?

Nayan write your own story...

Be as specific as possible and with the help of Simulacra

Playing advertisement.

Have you ever wanted to climb Mount Everest?

Philosia, stop the file.

I have reached here at Woodbury park at 9 am.

It’s a beautiful morning.

I am at the café eating breakfast

and reading Simulacra and Simulation.

A spanish couple started fighting out of nowhere.

It disturbed my reading flow.

Sadly, the café is almost empty.

I really wish there was some interesting guy around.

I am exploring the resort.

Such a beautiful place.

I am feeling restless, I don't want to express this.

I just want to witness this.

These emotions will come and go.

And only I will remain.

Call Nivi. - Calling Nivi.

Wow, that was quick.

I thought you might take time to process today's strange interaction.

But you know what, I'm glad you called.

But Nivi, I just found your diary at my place.

Hello, Nivi, are you there?

Yeah, strange.

How do you have my diary?

Exactly. That's what I'm trying to figure out.

I'll be honest, I don't remember anything about this diary.

And I don't even remember you giving it to me, so...

If you didn't give me this diary,

so how is it at my place?

Maybe this explains everything.

What do you mean?

When I was leaving the resort,

I forgot my diary there.

And maybe you found my diary.

That's probably why you know so much about me.

Because I used to write everything in detail in my diary and...

you read everything.

You know,

this proves that we've never met.

And all of this is your imagination

Hey. - Hi.

Hi.

Thank you so much for coming here.

Honestly, I wanted to tell you something, Nayan.

Listen, before you say anything...

I want to apologise for yesterday.

I don't know why I thought whatever I said was true.

For me it's very important to tell you this...

I wasn't acting.

For me...

Somewhere deep down, I still feel that those memories were real.

Listen, why don't you sit?

Nivi.

I don't remember how or when I got your diary.

Can I tell you something strange?

Yeah.

Your handwriting,

It's... it's exactly like mine.

When I was reading your diary,

for a moment I thought I've written it.

I couldn't sleep last night at all.

I was constantly thinking about us, about yesterday.

The conversation we had. The moments we shared...

This pull, this energy, this...

This connection I have never felt it before.

Nivi, don't you feel the same way?

I did too.

Always.

I've never felt this type of connection

with anyone other than with you.

I really miss you, Nayan.

I knew it.

Nivi, I knew! I knew it, you were bluffing!

I knew what I was saying was the truth.

You know, Nivi, for a moment I thought I'm losing my mind.

I'm going crazy.

But I wasn't.

I'm happy I'm not crazy after all.

Whatever you said yesterday,

everything is true.

We know each other.

Whatever you said, actually happened between us.

But not the way you described it.

You...

You mixed up a few film scenes with

our moments and experiences.

Why don't I remember all this clearly?

Damn.

Now that you're telling it to me, all those scenes

were from my favourite films.

When I was telling you about all those events and memories,

it all felt so real at that point of time.

Everything was true.

Minus the film details.

Why don't I remember all this?

It's all so unclear in my head.

It feels as though all of this is a dream.

You had an accident,

and you had a memory loss.

Accident?

Memory loss? Really?

That is why you don't remember anything clearly.

I was seriously surprised when you recognised me in the metro.

I was taken aback.

I played along because I wanted to know how much you remembered.

And surprisingly,

you remember everything except for the film events.

You know, it really brought back some memories.

I was really, really happy reliving those memories.

A part of me is still stuck in them.

Nivi,

it's all too much for me to process right now.

But you know what the good part is?

You're with me and that's all I care about.

What?

You really don't remember anything else?

What else?

Before your accident, we had already broken up.

Got you this, anyway.

Where shall I start?

Tell me everything.

From the very beginning.

No, Nivi. I'm not that obsessed.

How do you know?

You so addicted, you don't even realise it.

To the point, it's become your second nature.

But you know what the worst part is?

If someone points out your flaws to you,

you get so hyper you can't even accept it.

Really? - Really.

I don't think I have a problem accepting my flaws.

Okay, let me show you something.

Have a look.

I was shocked when I came to know that

you delete all the things which you don't like.

Cause you hide your flaws from yourself and don't want to face it.

How can I trust this? - What do you mean?

I just showed you your video, what more proof do you need?

You said I tamper my videos, right?

You could have done the same.

Wow.

You'll never change.

I had a feeling you'll say something like this.

That's why I have more proof.

Go on.

Connect yourself to my system and download the lie detector app.

Go on.

Sure.

Okay.

Now select any random memory,

and click analyze.

Do you want to see my results?

No.

I don't need that.

Okay, Nivi, I agree,

I have these flaws, okay? I'm full of flaws.

So what?

Aren't all people in the world flawed?

That's not the point, Nayan.

Yes, we all have flaws.

But you don't accept your flaws.

What I'm trying to say right now is,

I'm working on myself.

I swear, I will fix it. - There is no repair. You can't...

change. It's too late.

Why are you saying all this?

I'm telling you, I'm giving you my word,

I'm going to work on things, I can change. I will change.

What I cannot understand is, our fight, why we broke-up...

the reason is that I don't accept my flaws. Is that it?

I never really told you the reason of our break-up.

I never wanted to speak about it again.

Why, Nivi?

What had happened?

You had an accident.

Shrikant?

Shrikant, tell me something. Was I ever in an accident?

I don't recall anything. Was it a minor accident?

If it was a major one I would have definitely remembered it.

You're so addicted, you don't even realise it.

Look, maybe Rajnish is right.

The technology has turned us into zombies.

Can't you all spend some time without technology?

You know what I have no idea what is the issue between you two.

What has happened?

To be honest, I agree everything he says these days.

I know who and what you actually are, Nayan.

'You're one person with me and then

you're someone else with someone else.'

'But that's what it's supposed to be.'

'You're a different person with different people.'

Whatever happens between us, why do you share it with Rajnish, Nivi?

What if she shared everything with me?

We are best friends!

'You know what?'

'Not everything is meant to be shared,

even with your best friends.'

'And you've f**king crossed your limit, man!'

I have not crossed my limits okay.

He is f**king almost always right.

Rajnish I am really sorry for everything.

You are the one who was constantly there for me and...

I was blind.

You are not angry with me right?

And if you are angry with me, forgive me.

Don’t be stupid. I was never angry with you.

Anyway, Cider?

Its made at home-made dude.

- Sure - I will be right back

Can I ask you something? - Sure.

Why are you suddenly here?

I felt like coming here, so here I am.

Okay.

So, there's an app. It's called lie detector.

What it does is, it tracks your facial expressions,

your voice, your body language, and then it tells you

if you were lying or saying the truth.

What I did was,

I uploaded my memories with you, our videos in that application.

And it turned out that, you've always been truthful.

You need an app to help you understand your best friend?

Always go with your gut feeling.

And, what if the app is faulty?

Then what?

To assume something about someone based on technology is very risky.

Technology can be wrong too.

But our heart,

and gut feeling will always be right.

Yes.

Yes, you're right.

Rajnish...

You know what? My heart was dead for years.

But now.

Now it's opening up.

And you know what? - What?

I've met Nivi.

Wow! - Yeah. I've met her.

I won't let her get away this time.

Then what are you doing here?

Go to her.

Go to her, right now!

- Okay. - Go!

Rajnish? - Yeah?

Do you think, she'll give me another chance?

Of course, she will.

Remember?

It's not where you take it from,

it's where you... - it's where you take it to.

Yes! - Yes.

I'll see you. - See ya.

Yeah.

Nayan?

Hey.

You're here again?

May I come in?

Nivi, I want to show you something.

Okay? - Okay.

Just look at it.

This.

This Hive is the root cause of all the problems.

Okay?

I've decided I'm going to get rid of this.

I'm going to get it removed.

I'm going to work on my addictions.

I'm going to work on myself.

I won't lose you this time.

Things will happen. We...

- It will happen. - Wait

Do you think Hive is the issue?

You are the problem, Nayan.

This is just a tool.

Once you get addicted to something,

it's very difficult to give it up.

I don't think you can change.

Listen, why can't I change? Listen.

Nivi, listen to me. Give me another chance, no?

Things will happen. I'll make it happen.

Okay. It's... it's fine. It's okay.

I'm not sure, Nayan.

I don't think I can go through all of this again.

I won't be able to handle it. It's too painful.

Listen...

Okay. I'm sorry. Nivi, I know. I apologise for whatever happened.

I won't disappoint you again.

I promise. I won't.

Nivi,

The spark between us

is still there.

You experienced it yesterday too.

It's too late, Nayan.

I've already crossed that bridge.

Nayan, what are you doing?

Give me your hand.

Why?

To help you cross the bridge.

Dude, that guy has become a full-time...

stand-up comedian now. Yeah. - Oh!

Rajnish, why were you late?

We thought like Shrikant, you know,

you'd also bring home some pleasant surprise.

Really?

You are right. I have a surprise for you guys

Oh, really? - Okay.

You'll need to wait.

Anyway, Nivi, I've heard nothing but praises about your app.

Yeah. - Please show us how it works.

It's nothing special honestly.

Just two small apps, I guess.

Excuse me, nothing special?

Guys, both the apps are really interesting. Show them.

Come on.

Cool, have a look.

Have a look, guys.

Wait. Not this one.

The other app.

Lie detector app.

Show us that one.

Sure.

Can I make one more request, please?

Select yours and Mayan’s memory.

Otherwise, how will we understand if this

app is accurate or not? - Rajnish, what's up with you man?

What are you getting at, huh?

Bro, let her show the apps, yeah?

Sure. Nivi, show them.

Why did you do this?

I did it for love.

Jessica used to talk so much about you...

I fell in love with you right away.

And one day I found out, you and Jessica broke up,

and through Simulacra I created fake memories.

I hacked your chip and replaced your memories with my fake memories.

Because I wanted to recreated those memories that you spent with Jessica.

So using deep fake technology,

I changed Jessica's face and put my face in your memories.

I deleted few memories and added new ones.

And while walking & talking through a remote...

I was triggering the same memories.

I thought when you start loving me too,

I will tell you all the truth..

I am really sorry.

He's not looking for flings.

He just wants a meaningful connection.

Something deep and intellectual.

Hey. - Hi.

This is all too much to process, huh?

Even I have started feeling that

the microchip is the root cause.

Yes.

So I was thinking...

Maybe it's time for us to remove it.

Even I don't want to use it.

Jessica.

We don't use the chip much anymore.

I mean, I'm...

I'm learning to use it effectively, and...

I'm not addicted to it anymore.

What do you think?

Yes, definitely. - Yeah?

And I'm so proud of you for that, Nayan.

You definitely have changed.

But...

I feel that...

We as a couple need to take the last step.

For our future.

What do you mean?

I've taken an appointment at Hive for this Friday.

Let's get rid of this damn microchip.

What happened?

I thought you'd be happy about it.

Don't you love me anymore?

I do. I do love you.

Jessica, what's the hurry?

I mean.

Whatever has happened over the last few days, I...

I need some time to process it. Or we need...

Some time to process it all.

We have all the time in the world.

Trust me.

Everything will be fine.

See you. - Yes. See you.

You have a great day, okay? Yeah?

"Everything is lost."

"Memories are all I've got."

"'Cause it felt so right."

"You know it's true."

"Is this really the curtain call?"

"And just maybe I never knew you at all."

"I'm silent but you can hear me screaming."

"Show me where to go."

"Cause you never broke down the wall."

"But your smile is all I see."

I've thought a lot.

I can't do this.

But why?

His addictions.

People don't ever change.

Really?

Who finds true love these days?

And you want to leave him just because of his addictions?

Think about it.

I know you are concerned.

I really do.

But I have a plan.

The story is a bit complex.

Implantation would be difficult. We will have to do it a few times.

A few times?

But won't Nayan find it odd?

No, not really.

We'll wipe his old memories after every implant.

It is possible that he will remember a few things.

But he'll always believe they are his own memories.

I'm- I'm not convinced.

Memories happen to be our

subjective experience. Right?

Which happen inside our own mind.

Nayan will never know what's real and what's a lie.

Having said that, if we can implant an objective proof,

he will never really be able to deny it.

For example?

For example, something that exists outside of his own mind

in this physical reality.

Might be a video, or

or even his own diary.

Just write a story exactly like your favourite films.

And once the story is complete,

and with the help of Simulacra

we'll put a fake implant in you.

And after the implant is done,

they will erase this memory.

So when you wake up next morning,

you'll think it's your own memory

or maybe in a dream.

Hi, good evening.

I'm here to meet Nivi.

She's inside.

Tomorrow's meeting is really important.

We cannot afford to mess up even one percent.

We'll catch up later?

You're here?

I'm here?

Even after everything you did to me, I'm still here.

Nivi, if what we had was a lie,

then why do I still miss the time we spent together?

I have so many questions, and not a single answer.

Nivi, until I get answers,

I won't find peace.

And it's driving me crazy right now.

So please, do me a favor. Just tell me,

what we shared

was it real or a lie?

How do I answer that, Nayan?

Even if I did,

would you even believe me?

- Just tell me the truth. - What is truth anyway?

Everyone perceives things

differently, which creates our own reality.

Maybe your reality and mine are different.

Which reality will you choose?

Yours or mine?

I've made a mistake once,

and I don't wanna make that mistake again.

Nayan.

What do you think?

Everything you felt, was it a lie?

What does your heart say?

Still,

even if I say anything, you won't even believe me.

I know you're gonna hate me for this

for ever.

That's all I can say.

By the way, I wanted to tell you that Jessica and I have decided that

we are going to get rid of the microchip.

But I'll tell you my honest truth.

Nivi, I don't want to get it removed.

If I get it removed, I'm gonna lose all the memories,

all the beautiful moments that I've spent with you.

And I can't afford to lose that.

For me, every single moment,

everything was real.

Each and everything I...

It was so goddamn

real for me.

You asked me, right?

Which reality would I choose?

I choose this one.

This is my truth, this is my reality.

And I don't know where am I standing right now.

Where I am at.

I don't know whether I love Jessica or...

I love you. I love you!

You know, it's such a mind...

It's so hard for me to process this.

What do you want?

You can choose that same reality.

We can do that.

Nayan.

This is the reality you chose.

Please read it.

Not now.

Please.

I booked an appointment at Hive for this Friday.

Let's get rid of this damn microchip.

This is the reality you chose.

Nayan choose his technology for every single decision he makes

every moment.

Nivi, how do you decide what's real and what's a lie?

Just close your eyes and feel your gut.

You'll find your answer.

- Hi. - Hey.

- You okay? - Yeah.

What's up?

All good. How was your day?

Good, tiring.

I'm thinking

I'll go to sleep now.

Should we go?

I'll join you in a while maybe.

Come now?

Okay.

Good morning, Nayan.

You have an appointment at Hive

in half an hour,

to remove the microchip.

Am I walking and talking through a remote?

I was just reawakening those memories.

Don't you love me anymore?

Emotions and feelings are real, right?

Whether they're for a truth

or for a lie.

Do you need an app to understand your best friend?

Always go with your gut feeling.

Just close your eyes and feel your gut.

You'll find your answer.

"Everything is lost."

"Memories are all I've got."

"Have I been a lie,"

"It's the best lie that I ever lived."

"And relived."

"'Cause it felt so right."

"You know it's true."

"Let's get the moonlit sky, and try to find my way home."

"Is this really the cut and cold?"

"And just maybe, I never knew you at all."

"Unsolid, but you can hear me screaming."

"Show me where to go."

"Show me where to go."

"Trying to read between the lines."

"Wish everything was black and white."

"'Cause I don't want to play pretend."

"Is this too much to comprehend?"

"I'm sitting here."

"Feel like a fool."

"A fool."

"But over time, I know that I will find my way home."

"Is this really the cut and cold?"

"And just maybe, I never knew you at all."

"Unsolid, but you can hear me screaming."

"Show me where to go."

"'Cause you never broke down the wall."

"And just maybe, you never knew me at all."

"My face is fading from memory,"

"But your smile is all I see."
