Summary:
Omkara is a gifted chieftain who heads a gang of outlaws, including the crafty Langda Tyagi and the dynamic Kesu amongst his chief cohorts. Langda's pride is slighted when Omi appoints Kesu as his chief lieutenant. Raging with envy, he hatches a plot to falsely implicate Omi's beautiful fiance Dolly in an illicit affair with Kesu. Using petty insinuations and lies, Langda keeps poisoning Omi's mine till one day he snaps and goes amok tearing up his secure world, leading up to a horrific tragedy. Omkara is a classic theme of love, deception, jealosouy and passion.
