AAKROSH

A public prosecutor discovers the harsh realities about life of the scheduled tribes in India during 1980s while defending a case of a tribesman charged with murdering his wife.

Govind Nihalani’s striking debut feature is an evocative take on caste discrimination and the systemic exploitation of those less privileged. Written by Vijay Tendulkar, Aakrosh features one of Om Puri’s finest performances as the lead character who only expresses his plight through his eyes.
