The trailer shows that Vikrant and Sanya are playing a young, newly married couple who love each other. Sanya plays Jyoti, while Vikrant is Ashu. Jyoti’s family disapproves of their relationship, and hence they are on the run from her family after their marriage.
The court grants them protection and provides refuge in a dingy hostel to live. Jyoti’s family hires a civil assassin Dagar played by Bobby Deol. The girl’s family asks Dagar to bring Jyoti back or kill her for their twisted sense of honour.
The crime thriller will premiere on Zee5 on February 25.

“Our director, Shanker sir has been the driving force and has truly elevated the film with his deep understanding of his actors and characters,” she said.
Bobby Deol said that he loved the character of Dagar who is a ruthless mercenary with a cause. “I loved the way the character was written, it’s unlike anything I have played before,” he said.
