Dhadak
Directed by Shashank Khaitan
Produced by Zee Studios, Dharma Productions
A passionate romance that pits young love against rigid social hierarchies, balancing emotional warmth with the real threat of honor-based violence.
Madhukar and Parthavi fall head over heels in love with each other, but the fact that they belong to different castes of society, becomes an obstacle in their romance. The lovers dare to go against societal norms and battle all odds for the sake of love.
