Satya is the story of a man who comes to Mumbai to make a living. A series of incidents puts
him in jail where he meets and becomes close to a gangster, Bheeku Mhatre. Once out of prison,
Bheeku initiates him into the gang and gives him a place to live in.
Opposite this apartment, Vidya, a struggling singer, lives with her aged parents.
A relationship between Satya and Vidya develops alongside his rise in the underworld.
Of the latter fact however, Vidya is completely unaware.
As his love for Vidya grows in intensity, so does the need to conceal his identity from her,
until he finds himself living a lie. The tension of living a double life- trapped between
underworld gangwars and his desperate fear for Vidya's safety, jeopardised by his proximity
to her- makes him want to get out of this life of crime. The events which follow this
decision form the climatic sequence of the story.
Satya is the story of truth as it is perceived by different eyes, where only shadow lines
demarcate the good actions from the bad.......and only the happiness and pain that follow are
a reality.
