Overview

  • Leaked synopses on IMDb and Fandango describe the film as a revenge thriller centered on a man’s lifelong quest for vengeance.
  • A Letterboxd leak recasts the story as a sci-fi-tinged heist in which an aging gold smuggler uses hidden tech in vintage watches to rebuild his mafia empire.
  • Fans have debated which version is authentic just weeks before the Independence Day weekend debut and its box-office clash with YRF’s War 2.
  • Sun Pictures has kept official plot details under wraps while marketing has highlighted gold and vintage timepieces to underscore the smuggling theme.
