Part-Time Devdaas... Rugved Mondkar

In India, when people separate a guy and a girl in love, they are called Heer and Ranjha. But when they separate each other, they are called Devdas and Paro. Meet Arjun Kulkarni - a thirty-year-old director, with actresses and public fond of him and his work. He has achieved whatever he set out to - a decent house, a good enough car, and enough wealth to ensure a comfortable lifestyle - and has had his share of love and flings. Sounds like a complete life, happy and content. Or does it? What lies behind a smiling face is a painful break-up, which not only took away the love of his life Hrida after seven long years, but also led to estrangement from his parents, friends, and even the country. From full-time love, to part-time Devdasgiri; from part-time guilt, to fu ll-time redemption: life seems to come full circle when his sixteen-year-old neighbour Aditi comes in without knocking. Does he find a way back into love or is he destined to be a Part- Time Devdas?
