Mumbai Saga

The story unfolds during the mid-1980s, a period of liberalizing economic changes in India, intense gang activity, and political maneuvering. Mumbai's power brokers leverage violence and intimidation to control the city, while law enforcement struggles to keep pace. The era is defined by rapid urban growth, explosions of violence, and the uneasy balance between crime and governance.

The primary setting is mid-1980s Mumbai, a sprawling metropolis where the underworld collides with politics and everyday life. The city’s railway overbridges, mills, and crowded streets frame a world powered by protection money and rival gang warfare. London appears as the destination where Amartya and Arjun seek asylum and medical treatment, signaling the reach of Mumbai's power beyond borders.

⚖️ Power and Crime

The film centers on how individuals leverage violence and intimidation to seize control of Mumbai. Amartya’s ascent depends on both street muscle and political protection, showing how crime and governance feed each other. Rival gangs, police pressure, and opportunistic allies reveal a corrupt ecosystem where power is negotiated through fear.

🤝 Loyalty and Betrayal

Relationships within Amartya’s world are defined by fragile loyalties. Alliances with Bhau and Nari Khan shift as rivals test their strength, and family ties pull characters toward protectiveness or revenge. Betrayals—whether through informants or shifting allegiances—drive the film’s conflicts and consequences.

🏛️ Law and Order

The police, the judiciary, and political support shape the chase and counter-chase between criminals and enforcers. Court orders, the threat of TADA, and undercover tactics illustrate a system struggling to curb an escalating underworld. The lines between justice and expediency blur as both sides seek victory.
