The film's synopsis reads: "Kabir, a 17-year-old teenage boy, is conflicted about his cultural identity and struggles with a language barrier when his Indian grandmother comes to live with him in Sydney. The relationship between the two is strained, but they bond over music. When grandma suffers a cardiac arrest, Kabir sets out on a mission to learn Hindi and wants to surprise her with a Hindi rap song at an inter-college festival. This experience transforms Kabir, instilling in him a deep appreciation for language and cultural connection. After 2 years, Kabir is a global icon and a renowned musician who promotes language and culture through music and performs Hindi rap at an international music festival in Mumbai to honour his grandmother."

The film’s music is set to be a defining feature of the movie, blending a mix of contemporary and classical tunes to create a rich auditory experience. Javed-Mohsin, and Guy Sebastian himself, have composed soundtracks that reflect the emotions and themes central to the story.
