Adapted from Raghu Palat & Pushpa Palat's book, The Case That Shook The Empire, this film is a historical legal drama that shines light on one of the most fascinating case of Indian history Sankaran Nair vs. The Crown. Set in the early 1900s, the film showcases the legendary courtroom battle that proved to the world that Jallianwala Bagh was a case of cold blooded 'genocide' and not a suppression of armed and dangerous rioters. And at the heart of the film is Sankaran Nair, a charismatic, larger than life Barrister, to be played on screen by Akshay Kumar.
