The film starts with a Sufi quote which goes something like this: Life tests you with the same virtue you have inside you. A.R. Murugadoss’ Akira has the essence of this quote.
Akira(Sonakshi Sinha) is a story of a girl from Jodhpur, who is fierce, righteous and a fighter. In her childhood, her father taught her to fight against injustice. As a kid, in an attempt to fight the bad guys, she accidentally commits a crime and gets sent to the juvenile facility for 3 years. Now this incident has been tagged to her for lifetime as a stigma.
