Plot

Lukram (Lukram Smil), a football aspirant from Manipur, registers in a college in Lucknow named SRMU, as it is well known for producing International level footballers. His roommate Ishwar Singh (Manjot Singh), is a forward in the university team and helps Lukram get into the trials. He impresses the assistant coach Parth (Shashank Arora) who recommends him for the final eleven. However, Lukram faces discrimination from other players and officials due to his North East origin. Discouraged, he goes back to his native village.[6] After counselling from his former coach, he returns and joins another team, the Street Club. This club had Chandan (Akash Dabhade) as coach and his team consisted of underprivileged, but talented players. Lukram showcases his brilliance in an exhibition match against the college team, and finally convinces the team manager Vikram Singh (Kay Kay Menon), who has always been against "Outsiders" in the team, to reinstate him into the college team.
