What Is Loafer About?
The premise of Loafer without spoilers.
Ravi Kumar has long been the black sheep of his family—jobless, uncouth and constantly in fights. When a man is murdered, the evidence points to him and he is arrested. Although witnesses saw the crime, none testify, and his family knows he is innocent. As Ravi awaits a possible death sentence, only a miracle can spare him.
