It is the 1970s. Mumbai is in the underworlds vice grip. Film stars, businessmen, traders and the common man-no one is safe from the mafias greed and wrath. But a determined, intelligent and no-nonsense policeman is about to bring them to justice... without ever firing a single bullet. Assistant Commissioner of Police (Retd) Madhukar B. Zende is best-known for his sensational arrest of the serial murderer Charles Sobhraj, aka the Serpent. He is also lauded for successfully managing the violent riots in Mumbai that broke out in the aftermath of the demolition of the Babri Masjid in 1993, and ushering in an era of peace.
