Angry Young Men is the story of Salim-Javed, legendary screenwriters of 1970s Hindi cinema.

Like the character they created, Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar, two outsiders to the Hindi film industry, defied all odds, questioning the position of writers and demanding recognition as much as the reigning stars of that time.
