A father is initially obsessed with his son becoming an engineer and securing a well-paying job. However, when he learns about the large cash prize awarded to PV Sindhu, an Indian badminton player who won a silver medal at the Olympics, he changes his mind and decides to train his son and other neighborhood kids to become sports stars.
The father, who has no experience in sports training, creates his own unorthodox training methods, including having the kids practice hitting mosquitoes with a badminton racket. He also announces that he will take a 95% cut of any prize money the kids win.
As the kids progress, they start competing in local tournaments, but they ultimately fail miserably in a national competition. The father is taken into custody by the government, and he is left to regret his decision to pursue sports as a way to make money.
In the end, the father tells his son to focus on his studies again, and he is left to ponder the large sums of money that people in other professions, such as filmmaking, can earn.
