There have been posters of a missing dog all over Mumbai. Followed by huge hoardings about a missing dog called ‘Shonku’ which have been catching everyone’s eyes since the beginning of 2023. The passersbys and spectators were encouraged to contact a number and even a reward was promised. The campaign caught the attention of many, and over 2000 callers reached out to find out who Shonku is & were greeted with the trailer of the upcoming film ‘Lakadbaggha’. A select few were even rewarded with tickets to a special screening. Lakadbaggha is a homage to all the animal lovers and is a film that has the central protagonist, Arjun Bakshi played by Anshuman Jha who works tirelessly as a martial arts teacher by the day and a saviour for those who don’t have a voice of their own aka the street dogs. A larger war is waged when an antagonist who is an illegal animal trader comes face to face with Arjun and it’s a fight between humanity and the evil.
