Known for coming up with unconventional films and subjects, Ayushmann Khurana again hits the right chord with his upcoming film as he is seen playing a special agent in the movie. The trailer features Ayushmann as an agent named Joshua, who is sent on a mission to the Northeastern part of the country. Given the task to neutralize a threat being posed by separatists, the actor fights against a local group led by the formidable leader Johnson.
