In Bombay's seedy-shiny film world, Manto and his stories are widely read and accepted. But as sectarian violence engulfs the nation, Manto makes the difficult choice of leaving his beloved Bombay. In Lahore, he finds himself bereft of friends and unable to find takers for his writings.

An amazing piece of cinema that describes the life of a prominent Urdhu writer, but has the distinct undercurrent of the folly of nationalism and race.
