Directed by Madhumita, 'Kaalidhar Laapata' stars Abhishek as Kaalidhar--a middle-aged man grappling with memory loss, abandonment and a lifetime of quiet betrayals.
When he overhears his siblings' cruel plan to abandon him at the crowded Maha Kumbh Mela, Kaalidhar decides to disappear on his own terms.
Fate intervenes in the form of Ballu (Daivik Bhagela), an outspoken, street-smart 8-year-old who's been surviving solo on India's chaotic streets.
It was released on Zee5.
Prior to 'Kaalidhar Laapata', the actor was seen in the blockbuster film 'Housefull 5', which also starred Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh in the lead roles.
