About Bandar Plot, Star Cast & Release Date
The official synopsis of the movie reads, "Samar (Bobby Deol) is an aging television star whose celebrity is on the wane. Just as he's settling into a comfortable relationship with the younger Khushi (Saba Azad), his ex Gayatri (Sapna Pabbi) wants to be back in his life. Unable - and unwilling - to reason with her, Samar simply ghosts and blocks Gayatri, not realizing that his situation is about to become far more fraught. Gayatri then accuses Samar of rape. He is quickly taken into custody and subjected to a judicial system steeped in corruption and eager to keep him behind bars."
