Plot:

Set in 19th century colonial India, this captivating film tells the story of an aloof British army officer who daringly proposes a cricket tournament between his team and the downtrodden citizens of Champaner. The residents, heavily burdened by exorbitant taxes imposed by the British regime, initially find humor in the challenge but soon see it as their opportunity to fight back against social injustice. As the match progresses, a unique tale of camaraderie and defiance unfolds against the backdrop of cultural clashes and economic disparity. Through the medium of cricket, this film explores themes of power dynamics, resilience, and the indomitable human spirit amidst hardships.
