Story: Keshu ( Anand Tiwari), a student in a small town in Bihar, is hardly interested in the routine business of life. He hangs out with his odd medley of friends and thinks of innovative ways to add spark to their lives. But that's only when he's not assisting his father, a truck driver, who ferries cargo for kidnappers and insurgents in the wild interiors. Everything changes when he meets the new girl in town, an Indian-Italian who is doing research on Madhubani art. Can the small town upstart hope for reciprocity in romance?
Movie Review: There is a refreshing honesty in this film which makes it a small time sparkler. Set in the interiors of Bihar, the director manages to recreate the perfect backdrop of mofussil India where the youth are disoriented due to lack of opportunities and law and order is a far far cry. The lament of disillusioned constable Vinay Pathak, as he drowns himself in alcohol post duty and cries himself to sleep every night is symptomatic of the rot in off-the-map India. But Pathak isn't the only character who touches your heart with his angst. Almost all the other characters are flesh and blood forms and strike a genuine note from the word go.
