Nick falls head over heels for Sheeni and promises to do whatever it takes to be with her.

However, there’s a catch – Sheeni lives miles away from Nick and her parents strongly disapprove of her dating. Determined to win her heart, Nick unleashes his mischievous alter-ego Francois Dillinger, who is everything Nick is not – confident, daring, and rebellious.
