Shot across Banaras, New Delhi, Jaipur, and Mumbai, Setters is scripted by Siraj Ahmed, produced by Lovely Films Production. Acclaimed composers and music directors Salim Sulaiman have contributed to the music.
The plot of the film revolves around the rackets and scams that have infiltrated into the employment and education market to appease desperate youngsters vying for limited opportunities in government offices. It is a real-time narrative that exposes the modus operandi of the mafia who have created a parallel nexus and always avoid incarceration due to money and muscle power.
