Ishaan is bound by tradition and friendship to protect Sunny, a gangster and his best friend. However, he faces a moral dilemma when the woman he loves testifies against Sunny.
Sinekatalog’s take
A man bound by friendship and tradition to protect a gangster finds his loyalty tested when the woman he loves testifies against him. It is a serious, moody drama of conflicting duties, more interested in conscience than in action set pieces.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
