MUMBAI: Ananda Film & Telecommunications‘ film Khap is being readied for release on 29 July.

Being distributed by Percept Picture Company, the film is a story about the Khap Panchayat and the much talked about issue of ‘Honour Killings‘.

The film revolves around two different worlds colliding each other over a love story which we take as a norm in our world. Till then, in the world of Khap, a marriage is only sanctioned if it satisfies age old customs. If someone defies their diktat, an unofficial illegal death sentence is passed and executed in the most gruesome manner. But when the guardians of the old faith do it to lovers from Delhi, they challenge their supremacy in a way, no one ever dared to do.

Produced by Sangita Sinha and Siddhant Sinha, the film has been directed by Ajai Sinha who is best known for his TV serials like Hasratein, Astitva, Justujoo and Ghar Ek Sapna.
