It is produced by Yatin Jadhav under the banner of Skylink Entertainment.

== Plot ==
Once upon a time, there lived Govind Pathak, a senior citizen. His son, Abhay, a prominent IAS officer, tied the knot with Avni, a woman from a wealthy family. Abhay's career soared as he was appointed as the Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister. To secure his father's future, Abhay invested Govind's retirement savings and managed his financial transactions. However, Govind often found himself in need of money, having to repeatedly ask Abhay for it. One fateful day, when Govind urgently needed Abhay's help due to his mother's deteriorating health, Abhay was preoccupied with an anniversary celebration. Despite Govind's attempts to reach out, the message went unanswered until it was too late. Tired of his son's ignorance, Govind decides to file a case against his son demanding the sum of money he had spent on his son's future until now. The movie then shows how Govind fights the case gaining support for other senior citizens but also angering some other people.
