Storyline:
A simple fisherman. A foreign prison. A fight for survival.
A fisherman from Srikakulam, known for his deep love for the sea, embarks on what should have been an ordinary fishing trip. But fate takes a drastic turn when he inadvertently drifts into international waters—only to be captured by Pakistani forces.
