The film centers on the story of a girl named Muskaan and her controversial encounter, raising the question of whether Muskaan was innocent. Audiences will have to watch the film to find out.
In addition to Hindi, A Real Encounter will also be released in Gujarati. Director Sabir Shaikh shared that the film is set against a backdrop in Gujarat and is inspired by a real-life encounter that occurred in the state. The film includes a courtroom drama but sets itself apart from movies like Jolly LLB. It delves into the challenges faced by policemen who carry out encounters, highlighting that they often act under orders and face immense pressure from their superiors. The film also features an item song.
When asked about the social message of the film, the director emphasized the importance of parents being aware of their children’s activities and who they associate with, ensuring that they are not being led astray.
