Farzi is not your usual cinema drama, it’s a story of intensity, of a common man’s daily struggles when it comes to money. It is a smartly executed web series that is one of the most watched at the moment. It is a story that represents the Indian people who are bearing the weight of their loans and the pressure of repayment. Farzi is all about the nation that is post-demonetization. It is the hardships, struggles, and battles between the law and the underworld.
A very skilled and intelligent person decides to rebel against the system and the laws. He challenges the system by going against them and printing fake currency notes that no one can detect.
