Ria Khan is a martial arts-in-training enthusiast who dreams of becoming a stuntwoman like her idol. She is very close to Lena, her older sister who supports her dreams. However, when the mother & these 2 sisters get invited to a hoity-toity festive soirée given by another Pakistani family, it leads to a quick romance, engagement, & wedding for the older sibling. Ria’s suspicions becomes aroused & believes she must save her sister from a big mistake. Ria enlists her best friends to sabotage the relationship & the impending marriage. Is Ria just jealous of losing her special bond with Lena or is there something more sinister going on? This is a hilarious wild comedy romp with an over-the-top mashup of kung fu action/heist caper/the Chicken Little tale. Witness the “Wrath of Khan” as Ria brings out the Fury of her Warrior to save her sister.
