Each have their own personal dependencies on social media. Ahana's boyfriend Rohan (Rohan Gurbaxani) suddenly breaks up with her, leaving Ahana confused and hurt. She starts stalking Rohan and his new girlfriend Tanya's every post on social media, eventually making her own posts to get Rohan's attention. Imaad is a serial dater, often meeting girls on the dating app [[Tinder (app)|Tinder]] and hooking up for one night before blocking them and cutting off all contact. He meets Simran ([[Kalki Koechlin]]), an older woman and a photographer, with whom he genuinely connects and starts to open up to emotionally. However, he keeps using Tinder despite his friends urging him to delete it. Neil aspires to open his own gym and often compares himself to more successful personal trainers posts on social media. He is also in a secret relationship with a popular [[influencer]] named Lala (Anya Singh). At one of his comedy shows, Imaad jokes about Neil's relationship with Lala, calling it fake. Neil takes offense and verbally and physically attacks Imaad after the show, telling him to confront his own problems with emotional intimacy. After this, Neil and Imaad stop talking, worrying Ahana, who has quit her job to open a gym with them. Meanwhile, Simran and Imaad's relationship progresses, and they confess that they have real feelings for each other. Ahana's social media posts recapture the attention of Rohan, who flirts with her at a party, and the two hook up. However, when Ahana wakes up, she realizes Rohan is gone and that he has blocked her number. Neil confronts Lala after he sees her post a picture of her kissing another man. She states that she only spent time with Neil because she was bored and they were never in a real relationship. Later, she files a complaint against Neil, who is fired from his job as a trainer. Neil angrily hacks into Lala's [[Instagram]] account and makes several posts exposing her as a fake. Simran sees Tinder messages on Imaad's phone and realizes he is still hooking up with other women. Imaad insists that it doesn't mean anything, but she ends their relationship and tells him to leave. Ahana drunkenly confronts Rohan at his birthday party, exposing their affair in front of his girlfriend Tanya. After Tanya leaves, Rohan insults Ahanya, but Imaad arrives and tries to fight him. As Rohan is about to strike Imaad, Neil arrives and punches Rohan. Neil and Imaad reconcile and leave with Ahana, who realizes that Rohan is not worth it. Neil publicly apologizes to Lala after seeing she is being harassed online. At a comedy show, Imaad tearfully shares that he was sexually abused as a child by his father's business partner. He admits that the abuse led to his issues with intimacy but now he wants to take control of his life. His show receives a standing ovation, and Ahana and Neil, who are in the audience, comfort Imaad as he cries backstage. In a narration over the credits, Ahana urges people to find ways to be less dependent on social media. ==Cast== *[[Adarsh Gourav]] as Neil Pereira *[[Siddhant Chaturvedi]] as Imaad Ali *[[Ananya Panday]] as Ahana Singh *[[Anya Singh]] as Lala *Rohan Gurbaxani as Rohan Bhatia *Narendra Jetley as Paresh Phadnis, Ahana’s father *[[Kalki Koechlin]] as Simran Kohli *[[Vijay Maurya]] as Malcolm Pereira, Neil's father *[[Malaika Arora]] as herself (cameo appearance) *Divya Jagdale as Sally, Neil's mother *Garima Yagnik as Meher *Kashyap Kapoor as Melbun, Imaad's manager *Mahathi Ramesh as Aisha *Roshmin Mehandru as Harsh Malaika's primary trainer ==Production== === Development === On June 2021, it was reported that Zoya Akthar had cast Ananya Panday, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Adarsh Gourav in her next production.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-02-18 |title=EXCLUSIVE: Ananya, Siddhant, Adarsh to film Kho Gaye Hum Kahan from March; Actress calls it a relatable story |url=https://www.pinkvilla.com/entertainment/exclusives/exclusive-ananya-siddhant-adarsh-film-kho-gaye-hum-kahan-march-actress-calls-it-relatable-story-1026945 |access-date=2023-12-09 |website=PINKVILLA |language=en |archive-date=2023-12-09 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231209063020/https://www.pinkvilla.com/entertainment/exclusives/exclusive-ananya-siddhant-adarsh-film-kho-gaye-hum-kahan-march-actress-calls-it-relatable-story-1026945 |url-status=live }}</ref> In September 2021, the filmmakers officially announced the movie with the trio titled ''Kho Gaye Hum Kahan.''<ref>{{Cite news |last=PTI |date=2021-09-16 |title=Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday and Adarsh Gourav to star in ‘Kho Gaye Hum Kahan’ |language=en-IN |work=The Hindu |url=https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/siddhant-chaturvedi-ananya-panday-and-adarsh-gourav-to-star-in-kho-gaye-hum-kahan/article36492410.ece |access-date=2023-12-09 |issn=0971-751X |archive-date=2023-12-09 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231209063020/https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/siddhant-chaturvedi-ananya-panday-and-adarsh-gourav-to-star-in-kho-gaye-hum-kahan/article36492410.ece |url-status=live }}</ref> On April 2023, Zoya Akthar announced the film had started shooting being directed by debutante Arjun Varain Singh and written by Singh, Akthar and Reema Kag.
