, a failed and struggling film director whose career and personal life are in shambles. He receives a sudden opportunity to direct a film in Dhanbad, Jharkhand. However, upon arrival, he discovers the project is funded by the local mafia, who force him to navigate a dangerous underworld where the lines between cinema and crime become blurred.
