Tale of two Friends is a story about two childhood friends - Amir and Salman. They both aspire to become cricketers and applied for a scholarship for training in the Cricket Academy of India. Both get the scholarship however Salmaan’s family restrain him from going for the training, whereas Amir’s family enable him to accept such a great opportunity to train in India. Salman becomes very frustrated and lonely after Amir leaves for India and fell a prey of being brainwashed into an evil circle of religious extremism. Rokeya, Amir’s sister, has a liking in Salmaan and tries to lead him out of the vicious circle. Will Salmaan be saved before it’s too late?
