📖 Story
Vikas Narayan (Sharwanand) is a top motocross champion trained by his father and coach Sunil Narayan (Rajasekhar). Despite his rising career and a lucrative sponsorship from a sports firm led by Indraneel (Atul Kulkarni), Vikas abruptly leaves the sport and his father to lead a simple life with his wife Ananya (Malavika Nair) and their son. The story follows his journey of rediscovering his passion for racing and reconciling with his father years later.
Sharwanand: Delivers a physically demanding performance, having lost 23 kgs for the role. He looks like a professional biker and handles the emotional scenes with restraint.
Dr. Rajasekhar: Adds significant stature to the role of the father and coach. His screen presence and 'angry star' persona fit the demanding coach archetype perfectly.
Malavika Nair: Good in a somewhat limited and regular heroine role, providing a soft balance to the high-testosterone environment.
Atul Kulkarni: Stylish and effective as the antagonist representing corporate greed in sports.
Brahmaji: Provides reliable support in his character role.
