The supporting cast includes Devadas Kapikad, Naveen D Padil, Aravind Bolar, Bhojaraj Vamanjoor, Umesh Mijar, Sandeep Shetty, and others.

The film is directed by Roopesh Shetty, with the screenplay crafted by Roopesh Shetty and Venu Hasrali, and the story penned by Prasanna Shetty Bailuru. The music is composed by Loy Valentine Saldanha, while the visuals are captured by cinematographer Vinuth K. The editing is handled by Rahul Vasishta, bringing together a talented and dedicated crew to shape the film’s overall vision.

The film follows the journey of Satya, a young and carefree social worker serving under a local politician. Initially, he treats his responsibilities with little seriousness, going through the motions without truly understanding the weight of his role. However, his perspective takes a dramatic turn when the very issues he once ignored the absence of a proper bridge, the lack of a functioning hospital, and crumbling infrastructure begin to strike close to home, deeply affecting his own family.

What was once just a job suddenly becomes a deeply personal mission, as Satya transforms from an indifferent young man into a determined and passionate advocate for change. His awakening serves as the heart of the story, highlighting how real empathy is often born from personal suffering and loss.

Best wishes to Roopesh Shetty and Team
