Plot

Bharat (Bharat Jadhav), a reporter at Khabardar newspaper, constantly finds himself at odds with his boss, Gauri Shringarpure (Nirmiti Sawant), who is never satisfied with his work and always demands more. Despite the professional challenges, Bharat is entangled in a personal dilemma as he divides his time between his demanding job and his love for Priyanka (Madhura Velankar).

On the other side of the story, Maruti Kamble (Sanjay Narvekar), a simple and honest truck driver, leads a modest life with his wife Tulsi (Kishori Godbole), two daughters, and his mother. However, privacy becomes a rare commodity for Maruti and Tulsi due to the constant presence of his mother (Rasika Joshi).

One day Bharat and Maruti cross paths and develop a strong friendship. Frustrated with the relentless demands of his boss, Bharat reaches a breaking point and makes a life-changing decision – he quits his job to marry Priyanka, becoming an integral part of her family.

Meanwhile, Maruti, in the course of his routine as a truck driver, is called to pick up a passenger at a seemingly ordinary bungalow. To his astonishment, the passenger turns out to be none other than the notorious wanted criminal, Anna Chimbori (Vinay Apte). Maruti unwittingly becomes a witness to a shocking crime when he observes that the local minister, More (Makarand Anaspure), not only shelters Anna Chimbori but also orchestrates his murder with the assistance of Inspector Pisal (Sunil Tawde).

Caught in the web of corruption and crime, Maruti becomes a target as More and Pisal frame him for the murder, leading to an imminent encounter. Feeling helpless and desperate, Maruti realizes that his only chance of survival lies in reaching out to Bharat and revealing the truth.

However, the plot thickens as Bharat, now disconnected from his reporting job, faces the challenge of how he can assist Maruti in this dire situation. The story unfolds with a mix of suspense, friendship, and the complexities of navigating personal and professional life in the face of unexpected twists and turns.
