Kerry on Kutton

In the heart of India's small town Ballia, known for breeding rebels, lies a tapestry of four teenagers whose lives are intertwined by circumstances as much as they are by their own desires. The story revolves around Kerry, a young man hell-bent on achieving his one life goal – losing his virginity. His obsession is all-consuming, and his life revolves around this singular ambition. However, his journey is not as straightforward as he might believe. Kerry finds himself entwined with Kadambari, a teenage boy who has been saddled with the burden of perpetuating his family's musical wedding band legacy. Kadambari, however, yearns to break free from this mundane life. His passion lies in breeding dogs, a hobby he has inherited from his uncle, Rajesh. The young Kadambari sees a possible path to wealth and success through this venture and devises a plan to steal a prize puppy from Bade Babu to take to his uncle. Their lives are further complicated by the arrival of Suraj, a teenager working tirelessly to buy a mobile phone for his love, Jyoti. Suraj's miserly father, a government school teacher, controls every aspect of his life, including his pocket money. Despite his longing to buy Jyoti a phone, Suraj's father consistently manipulates him into parting with his earnings, further pushing Suraj towards desperation. As these lives intersect, Jyoti emerges as a pivotal figure in the narrative. With a beauty that belies her cunning nature, Jyoti has mastered the art of manipulating her lovers to achieve her materialistic demands. Her charm and good looks are tools she employs to get what she wants, often leaving her partners feeling used and vulnerable. As the story unfolds, these four teenagers are inexorably drawn towards each other, their circumstances and desires intertwining in complex ways. The town of Ballia becomes a crucible, where their disparate lives are forged and shaped by their interactions.
