Omar, a taxi driver in New York, is wrongfully arrested for terrorism. The United States National Security Agency wants to send him to Samir, who was a friend in his university days and is now a leader of a secret terrorist group. Omar accepts the mission, only to prove Samir's innocence. Once a city full of friendship and love, New York no longer interested in the dreams of the Arabs and Indians after 9/11. Without typical Bollywood style music and dance, this serious drama follows the ragged life of an Indian kept down by his own skin color and religion with nostalgic retrospect on life in New York City.
