Gangaram is the Sarpanch (leader) of a remote village in Uttar Pradesh, India. His village has been suffering from famine and crop failure, exacerbated by wildlife encroachment. During an unsuccessful visit to a government office to seek poverty aid, he glances upon a poster which stated that kin of victims of fatal tiger encounters in areas bordering tiger reserves would be entitled to a ₹1,000,000 compensation from the Govt. of India. In a desperate attempt to alleviate the conditions of his village, Gangaram plots to sacrifice himself in a tiger attack. During his search of a tiger, his path crosses with that of a poacher with whom he forms an unconventional partnership. The story then follows his journey, highlighting social issues faced by the lesser fortunate.
