Veronica (Suhana Khan) makes a return from London, and just like the original comic storyline, Archie (Agastya Nanda) becomes the centre of attention, capturing the affections of both Veronica and Betty (Khushi Kapoor). Archie, true to his character, strives to chart a path out of the town to pursue a career in the realm of music.
Their lives take a dramatic turn as the group unites to rescue Green Park, a town landmark threatened with demolition by Mr. Lodge, Veronica's father. In this crucial moment, Dilton (Yuvraj Menda) and Reggie (Vedang Raina) take the lead, instigating a transformation that propels the film's narrative forward.

In the trailer, Suhana Khan shines prominently, portraying Veronica with an impressive grasp on the character's mannerisms that we've cherished since childhood. She effortlessly embodies a polished, posh, and stylish persona in every frame, and witnessing her character evolve as she takes a stand against her father to save Green Park is sure to captivate audiences.
