Spoilers ahead
In Satara, Sachin Tichkule, Akshay Kumar, a petty road-works contractor, faces a tight squeeze when the Satara Municipal Corporation withholds his payments, pushing him to sue for the money he’s owed and try to keep his life on track.
His family roots run deep: his father Ramakanth, a brother, three sisters (Anjali among them and unmarried), and two brothers‑in‑law, Suhas and Trigun, all under one roof with mum Sheetal as the glue that holds them together. The kinship web is thick, and the drama around a family palace adds another layer of tension—the palace can be sold only with the agreement of all brothers and sisters, a rule that weighs heavily on everyone.
