Synopsis

System

Neha (Sonakshi Sinha), a public prosecutor, finds herself in an uncomfortable stage of her career for not winning any case. She gets challenged by her father Ravi Rajvansh (Ashutosh Gowariker), who is an established defense lawyer. Facing the challenge, Neha needed to win 10 cases without losing any at the mid. During the challenge period, Neha meets Sarika (Jyothika), a courtroom stenographer. Sarika starts helping Neha by giving tips and evidence to win cases and Neha starts winning cases with Sarika's help. After winning the ninth case, Neha's senior hands the 10th case, in which her opponent's defense lawyer is her own father, Ravi Rajvansh. Neha's father asks her not to take the case, but she denies and both indulge in a heated conversation, following which Neha leaves her house and shifts to a house joint with Sarika. Digging more into the 10th case, Neha finds she was not actually helped by Sarika, but she was used. All nine cases she won were planted by Sarika. Knowing the facts of the 10th case, Neha confronts Sarika and Sarika's reveal twists the story into intense emotional drama and an inner-psychological manner for Neha to stand on her 10th case.

★★★★★ ★★★★★ 3.0 2026-05-23

A team-up of an inexperienced lawyer and a sharp stenographer makes for a pulpy premise but notice how patiently director Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari (Nil Battey Sannata, 2016; Bareilly Ki Barfi, 2017) lays down the story.
