Jhund Movie

JHUND is the story of an unusual football team. Vijay Borade (Amitabh Bachchan) teaches in St John’s college. The educational institute is situated next to a vast slum locality. The youth in this area are not well-educated and do odd jobs for a living. They even resort to stealing jewellery... and mobile phones and coal from moving trains. One day, Vijay spots some of these youth like Ankush aka Don (Ankush Gedam), Babu (Priyanshu Kshatriya), Angel (Angel Anthony), Vishakha (Vishakha Uikey), Yogesh (Yogesh Uikey), Raziya (Rajiya Kazi) etc. playing football using an abandoned plastic box. He realizes that they have immense potential but they are wasting their time committing crimes and consuming drugs. He goes to the slum the next day and meets these young people. He asks them to play football for 30 minutes. In exchange, he’ll pay them Rs. 500. They agree. They have a gala time and after they finish their game, Vijay hands them Rs. 500 as promised. This goes on for many days. One day, Vijay doesn’t turn up on the ground. These slum kids then go to his house. Vijay tells them that he doesn’t have any more money to pay them. The slum kids, by now, have become so attached to playing the game, that they agree to play without money. Gradually, Vijay coaches them and soon, they become quite better at their game. Vijay proposes to the St John’s principal that these kids should be allowed to play a friendly match with the football team of the college. The principal reluctantly agrees. The coach of the St John’s team (Kishor Kadam) despises these slum children. He pressurizes the team to score 10 goals and not let the slum team score even one goal. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
