A film that will be most meaningful to those familiar with the complexities of East Indian politics, this drama offers a chilling portrait of a terrorist. Pali joins a guerrilla group after his best friend Jassi, who lives peacefully on a lonely farm with his sister Viran (Pali's fiancee), is wrongfully arrested by the police and tortured for his terrorism. Jassi returns home a crushed man and Pali decides to join the outlaws in their camp. Eventually Viran joins him and with the group leader they plot the assassination of a minister.
