As the 3-minute trailer begins, it gives out the feeling that it is going to be just another entertainer with colorful dance sequence with Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha having fun. However, it eventually turns serious as their lives get affected due to the huge electricity bills. Shahid plays the character of a pahadi who takes the matter in his hands after the character of Divyendu Sharma dies fighting for the cause. There is a courtroom scene where we get to see Yami Gautam.

The dialogues kind of rings a bell with the people facing these issues, especially in the rural areas.
