In the hot city of Ahmedabad, five friends—Aarush, Vihaan, Rudra, Kiaan, and Yuvan—are getting ready for their big trek to Kuari Pass. They are all around 20 years old and very excited. Aarush, the leader, is packing his backpack quickly. Vihaan, the funny one, is making everyone laugh with jokes. Rudra, the planner, is checking their maps and gadgets carefully. Kiaan, the charming friend, is keeping everyone's spirits high. Yuvan, the quiet artist, is drawing their adventure plans. Their apartment is full of laughter and last-minute chaos as they prepare for their unforgettable journey.
“Bro, Aarush, do you really need those extra boots? We’re not climbing Everest… yet.”
“Better safe than sorry! You never know when you might need them,” Aarush replies with a wink.
They are all excited and ready for the adventure ahead, not knowing what amazing experiences await them.

They board an overnight train from Ahmedabad to Rishikesh. The train is crowded with people sleeping and talking. Vihaan accidentally sits next to an old man with colorful beads and a shawl. Vihaan starts imitating the old man's accent, making everyone laugh.
“Oi, young man! Have you seen the spirits wandering near Kuari Pass?”
The old man smiles and tells them a spooky story about trekkers who disappeared near Kuari Pass because of mysterious spirits. He warns them that the mountains have secrets. The friends laugh it off, but Yuvan feels a bit uneasy and thinks they should bring an extra flashlight.

Early in the morning, they arrive at Rishikesh, greeted by the calm Ganges River and the majestic Himalayas. Aarush and Vihaan look for a cool place to stay and find "Mystic Vibes Hostel," a vibrant spot with colorful murals and a rooftop lounge. Rudra and Yuvan take pictures of the beautiful scenery, while Kiaan makes new friends with other travelers.
“Check out these walls! This place is awesome.”
“Perfect for our Instagram stories,” Rudra adds with a grin.
The air smells like incense, and they hear temple bells, mixing peace with the excitement of their adventure.

Back at the hostel, Rudra suggests they visit another place known for its great parties and breakfast. After some friendly teasing, they decide to go. They move into rooms named after Himalayan peaks, each decorated with bright tapestries and cool lights. The common area has a big mural of Shiva dancing in space, setting the mood for fun nights ahead.
“Alright, team Kuari, let’s make this place ours.”
“As long as Rudra doesn’t turn our room into a campsite with his maps,” Vihaan jokes, earning a laugh from the group.
The hostel is lively and promises unforgettable nights.

At night, Mystic Vibes Hostel becomes a lively place. The rooftop is decorated with fairy lights, and there's a makeshift bar serving local drinks. Aarush shares a rolled joint of high-quality Himalayan kush, and Vihaan opens a bottle of local beer for a toast.
“To the best trip of our lives!”
Rudra plays music on his speaker, mixing trance beats with classic rock. Kiaan talks to other backpackers, leading to spontaneous dance-offs. Yuvan, usually quiet, enjoys deep conversations under the stars with new friends.
“This place is amazing!”
The night is filled with music, laughter, and strong friendships.

Around 4 a.m., the hostel quiets down as dawn begins. The friends gather on the rooftop terrace, feeling the cool morning breeze. They talk about their dreams and fears. Yuvan shares a recurring dream about hidden mountain paths and ancient secrets, which makes the group curious.
“Do you ever feel like we’re about to discover something big?”
“Absolutely. It feels like the mountains are calling us,” Aarush replies thoughtfully.
With just two hours before their bus leaves, they decide to stay up a bit longer, toasting to their upcoming adventure. They don't know that their trek to Kuari Pass will challenge them, test their friendships, and reveal hidden mysteries in the mountains.
“Here’s to the unknown.”
