Synopsis
An aspiring actor is possessed by his passion to become a superstar actor, however he is dark of complexion and is rejected by everyone including his own father. Frustrated with the never-ending rejections, he ventures onto something so fantastical that it looks real as well as ridiculous. It is a journey of a young dreamer, who begins to change and affect the system and society around us and gather immense support from common people. He gets caught up in a situation where his only saviors are his aging realist father and his supporters across the country. It is first and foremost the clash—and later the convergence—of dreams and reality.
