She has spent 28 years in jail for a double murder she says she didn’t commit. Their calm routine is disturbed when Keshav (Akshay Dogra), a dangerous inmate with political links, suddenly goes missing. Officer Ateet Singh (Amitt K. Singh) starts the investigation, uncovering corruption and old grudges. The film is written and directed by Jaspal Singh Sandhu and has been praised for its storytelling and strong characters.
