This is the story of the highest-selling Punjabi music star of his era, a young man who rose from poverty to immense fame. His lyrics, which touched on raw themes of love, alcohol, and violence, made him a beloved icon among the masses but a controversial figure for the authorities and moral critics. The film follows his meteoric rise and the increasing pressures that came with his provocative art and public persona.
