"No! There will be no guns. There will be no guns at my son's funeral."
A mother attending his own son's funeral screams.
Aftab loves his motherland Kashmir but he witnesses a lot of bloodshed and violence. He is soon manipulated by Akram, leader of a terrorist group to join the group. Akram misleads Aftab by telling him that this will be a fight of freedom and liberation and showed him the dream of making Kashmir peaceful.
Aftab's mother loves him but he notices that he is manipulated by someone and suggests Aftab to stop going there but Aftab is too lost in his visions and ignores her.
The heartbreaking story portrays Kashmir's situation and how leaders misuse the kid's innocence and tell them stories about freedom. Unaware and a young age these kids believe they are joining freedom groups, but join terrorist gangs instead. What can their fate be instead of dying for the wrong cause?
