Many heroes go behind star value. Very few heroes go behind script. Vidharth easily belongs to the latter kind of hero.

An aged father who desperately needs money for her daughter`s wedding. An unnecessary female lead, whose father`s medication costs Rs 80,000. What happens when these characters; these stories, overlap with one another? ...Read full review
