It is the story of an insomniac ex-police officer who operates secretly for the corrupt system and goes looking for salvation.
Backed by Good Bad Films and Zee Studios, the film also stars Megha Burman, Abhilash Thapliyal and Mohit Takalkar in pivotal roles. The makers are expected to soon announce the Indian release date.
