Description

An electrifying, suspense-filled story of money and power, luxury and deprivation and of ordinary people pushed to their limits. Real estate developer Dharmen Shah’s offer to buy out the residents of Vishram Society - a formerly respectable, now crumbling apartment complex - is more than generous.

Shah is a dangerous man to refuse, but as the demolition deadline looms, Masterji’s neighbours, friends who have become enemies, may stop at nothing to secure their payoff.
