Spoilers ahead
Parag Dixit lives a contented life with his girlfriend, Mansi. The peace of their days is shattered when he is falsely implicated in a drug case, a setup orchestrated by his own acquaintance, Keshav Rathod. The allegations place him under a cloud of suspicion: he is arrested in Bandra for firing at a police officer and for possession of narcotics, while his so-called associate, Keshav Rathod, ends up gravely injured and hospitalized in critical condition. The weight of the accusation is compounded by the harsh, overcrowded reality of his new home: a jail barrack where space is scarce, and the atmosphere is heavy with fear, rumor, and the constant sting of confinement.
