While they are busy with their day-to-day problems, their world turns upside down because of one advertisement. They find themselves becoming the ‘poster boys' of male sterilisation after their pictures mysteriously appear on a public service ad promoting vasectomy. They are soon subjected to public shaming and they embark on a mission to fight the system that wrongly pronounced them sterile without their consent.
