Balidan 2025

When faith becomes fear, one man must rise.”

Directed by Santosh Sen

In the remote corner of the country lies Bhilmaghat, a village that looks like paradise from the outside. Beneath its beauty hides a kingdom of exploitation and fear ruled by a hypocritical priest “Baba,” who preys on innocents in the name of faith. A boy named Abhay survives a horrific ritual sacrifice with the help of Bhavani, who plants the seed of revolt—only to lose her husband in a direct clash with Baba. Years later, Abhay struggles to save his ailing mother but is ensnared in a sinister plot to bomb a massive temple inauguration and divide the nation. Now, he must save his mother, protect thousands of innocents, and end the tyranny. If he fails, the sacrifice will be his own. If he succeeds, his balidan will be remembered for generations.
