OFFICE SPECIAL

Plot: The story revolves around two persons, Jayaraj and Shankaran working in the same company. Jayaraj got promoted as the project Manager of the firm while Shankaran, a supervisor in the site, had his salary reduced. As the recession gets tough in U.A.E, Jayaraj finds it tough to cope with the new pressure bethrothed on him, while quite relaxed but hard working Shankaran survives the recession. As Jayaraj finds his family revolt against him , Shankaran is able to bring his family to U.A.E on a visit.
Jayaraj Stumbles upon SHankaran thrice in the movie, thus the scenes being crafted accordingly. The first time they bump into each other, Jayaraj had a promotion in his kit while Shankaran faced a cut back. WHiel the second time they ran into each other, Shankaran was recompensed for his site work while Jayaraj was chastised. The third time they meet in the market, when Shankaran had his family with him and was on a purchasing spree, Jayaraj strolling directionless and meaninglessly in the market.
The film ends with camra focussing on the TV kept inside the store featuring ASIA NET news as the director gives the viewers a implausible hope that the market is recovering.
