The film is a mix of sports and social drama, the film is about how Vijay spots talent in a bunch of youngsters in neighbouring slum.
He has an eye to catch their potential to do better in life rather than stay drowned in crimes in Nagpur's underbelly.
Vijay builds a football team of underdogs from slums, and in the process, he keeps them off drugs, alcohol, and crimes like chain-snatching.
There's a warm and beautiful scene just before the interval where kids and adults from slums narrate their life stories. Jhund is scheduled for release on 4 March 2022.
