Ek aisi mohabbat ki daastaan, jo na kabhi kahi gayi, na kabhi suni gayi... abhootpurv. From the streets of 90s Agra to a love that transcends life itself... Abhay's journey begins here. This heartwarming note is just a small glimpse of the world we're trying to create... the rest, we hope, you'll experience with us on the big screen."
