Storyline

After a group of friends graduate from Delhi University, they listlessly haunt their old campus, until a British filmmaker casts them in a film she's making about freedom fighters under British rule. Although the group is largely apolitical, the tragic death of a friend owing to local government corruption awakens their patriotism. Inspired by the freedom fighters they represent in the film, the friends collectively decide to avenge the killing.

It cannot be overstated enough that Mehra’s films come with an album that is a work of magic. Born out of the genius that is A.R. Rahman, each song is composed masterfully and captures the ethos of the situation perfectly.
