E.M.I. (abbrev.) Easy Monthly Installment is a bittersweet satire that looks at modern day India in a mirthfully subjective way. It's an engaging pick on, the easy to get but taxing to hold, the ever changing credit economy. It's a narrative of interconnecting characters coming from different strata and style. A peek-a-boo into their lives of situations that they didn't anticipate. The people who indulge in spending without thinking and others who care to be optimistic about the future that they desire. This satire dwells into the lives of our protagonists and their stories.
Anil and Shilpa are a young couple in love, they are contemporary, hard working, ambitious and submerged in debts. They get married against their fears of compatibility, starting their life in a brand new house. For them it is just 40% more expensive to own per month than a rented one that too without any 11 month cycles of renewals. Love and desire see no boundaries as they choose to travel to the cheapest foreign location for their honey moon which comes at a small installment. Electronics, Car, and kitchenware add to their happy dreams in small steps of more installments. As the cost of love finds various expenses for a happy matrimony their world begins to crumble.
