PLOT
All four stories in this movie deal with issues that are uncommon to be talked about in the orthodox Indian society and moreover, to be put on the screen. It attempts to challenge the shackles of the society and bring to the fore issues are not discussed but need to be and should be.

The final story 'I am Omar' is about a gay corporate guy who traces his relationship with his partner and how they are blackmailed by a ruthless cop while they are caught in the act.
Analysis
'I am' are two words that hold a meaning so deep that if one delves deep into it, one will be led on a path of self-discovery. It does not have a single meaning; it is what you define it as and what you define yourself as.
Onir does the same with his movie, where he tackles and portrays different definitions of the title and does it exceedingly well!
The story is moving and grasping, it compels you to think and to reflect on issues that affect our lives and are extremely poignant in today’s time.
