It follows the fierce prizefighter Maula Jatt (Fawad Khan) as he seeks vengeance against his arch-nemesis Noori Natt (Hamza Ali Abbasi) in a brutal tale of good versus evil. Critical Consensus

It is a gritty, visceral reimagining of the Punjabi folk hero that transcends the boundaries of the "Lollywood" era to stand toe-to-toe with international cinema.
