Karan and Raj has nothing in common. Karan is wealthy and a mansion is his habitat while Raj has empty pockets and sky is his roof. Yet they found a common ground. One that led to glorious road of friendship! They laughed, lied, loved and fought the odds together all in the name of friendship. Their blind faith in each other attracted world envy. But it was this world that never let them forget that it is not a relationship of equals. And how long could an unequal relationship sustain? Both defied conventions proving that true friendship was above all such trivialities. But like a bolt out of blue came a raging storm that threatened to sink the ship that housed sentiments of 2 friends. Will it mean the end of their friendship? Dosti is for all who have a true friend. Or truly want one.
