Born into poverty and chaos in 1930s, Burma, young Laxmi’s life takes an unexpected turn when both her railroad worker parents are killed in a bomb attack. Fuelled by vengeance and a one-point agenda. She braves rejection and earns her place as the youngest soldier in the Rani Laxmi Bai Regiment of the Indian National Army.
Under the guidance of Netaji Subash Chandra Bose himself, Laxmi transforms from a determined girl into a formidable spy, mastering the art of espionage and survival. With her small frame and sharp wit, she navigates treacherous landscapes, risking everything to gather vital intelligence against the British.

Yet, amidst the chaos of war, she discovers her own resilience and courage, fighting not just for her country but also for her own sense of justice.
