Bhakshak -

Vaishali is a departure from the "heroic" journalist trope. She is not fearless; she is wary. She carries the burden of being a woman in a patriarchal hinterland, balancing her professional duty with the safety of her family.

Despite a corrupt police force, political pressure, and personal danger, Vaishali and her small news team launch an undercover investigation. The film chronicles their struggle to find victims willing to speak, gather forensic evidence, and broadcast the truth before the powerful abusers can destroy the evidence or silence them. Bhakshak
