This film lost me at the twentieth minute itself, which is one of the advantages of watching a movie online (as against in the theatre), where you can pinpoint the exact moment on a timeline a picture dips. As do your interest levels for good.
Here's what happens: Rajkummar Rao, up until then a PTI (Physical Training Instructor) in a school, and a regular Ramesh of sorts, walks into a park leading a bunch of Bajrang Dal type hate-activists, to harass couples on Valentine's Day.

He picks on an elderly man as well, who's with his wife—which should be okay (in his eyes), except he's not convinced the young lady is indeed the wife she claims to be. So he shamelessly troubles them more—being the 'incel' lout he doesn't come across as before, or after.
