A coming-of-age story about friendship and love, loss and self-discovery, set in the vibrant metropolitan city of Kuala Lumpur Maya Joseph, a Penang girl, dreams of becoming a writer. She is told she isn’t suited to be one. Chong Mei Li, a stylish fashionista, dreams of creating a fashion empire. Her parents want her to take over the family furniture business and preserve their legacy. Rohan Das, a firstborn son, has managed to leave home but not the weight of his parents’ expectations. He needs to work hard and secure a good job to support his middle-class family. As luck would have it, their paths cross at Maestro University, and soon enough this unlikely trio is inseparable. From pulling all-nighters to exploring KL, their university life seems to be near-perfect, until it is not. Caught between personal aspirations and family expectations, will Maya, Mei, and Rohan overcome their self-doubts and choose to stay on their own paths? Based in part on Vidhya’s own university experience, Frappés for Three is a montage of the bittersweet university life, innocent first love, and internal struggles—all that we call ‘growing up’.
