A Doubtful Gaze at Uber at Midnight

2018

INTRODUCTION

Saket, a self-proclaimed ‘anti-national’ has called an Uber to reach home at midnight. Saket gives directions to the Uber driver, but the driver is understanding what he is saying. Meanwhile, Suna, a self-proclaimed ‘urban Naxal’ is caught watching pornography at Saket’s house, and the Narcotics Department has discovered the marijuana plants at Saket’s house. As midnight gets metaphorically darker, we realise that the roads Saket was trying to describe never existed. Perhaps the Uber driver doesn’t exist either.
