Filmed on the backdrop of British India where in a rural village the villagers protest a new tax forced upon them, as they had a bad drought and are going through financial difficulties. The local administrator challenges them to play a cricket match with putting across the condition that their taxes will be excused but if they lost, they'd have to pay three times more than what they were having to pay previously. To everyone's utmost surprise, a group of rural villagers without slightest knowledge of cricket, defeat a British team. We bet it'll give you goosebumps. The true Hindustani spirit!
