His character reflects the privileges of an urbane upbringing and a natural flair for the advertising domain. The series unfolds within the offices of MTMC, a bustling ad agency. The juxtaposition of Hema's idealism with Amit's pragmatism sets the stage for a compelling exploration of the advertising industry's dynamics.
