Set against the vibrant yet emotionally charged backdrop of the Bihu Festival, the film blends patriotism, human emotion, and high-stakes drama into a compelling narrative rooted in reality.
Designed as more than just a thriller, Bihu Attack reflects the deep connection between a region and the nation it belongs to. The film aims to raise awareness about the challenges faced in the North-East while celebrating unity, education, and social integration as the strongest weapons against extremism.

Bihu Attack tells the story of Raj Kunwar, a courageous and determined court martial officer from Assam, who dedicates his life to persuading various terrorist groups in the region to surrender and join the mainstream. A firm believer in education and social integration, Raj works closely with local communities, striving to build trust and guide misguided youth back into the system.
A widower living with his young daughter Driti, Raj Kunwar is admired for his inclusive outlook and rare ability to connect with people from all walks of life. However, his mission takes a dangerous turn when intelligence reports reveal a major terrorist attack planned during the Bihu Festival, coinciding with the visit of the Defence Minister to Assam.

It is not just a film, but a reflection of Assam’s reality, its culture, and its people’s love for the nation. Through this story, we wanted to show that education, unity, and humanity are stronger than fear and violence. This film is our tribute to the brave forces and the spirit of Assam.”
With its strong patriotic core, culturally rich setting, and gripping narrative, Bihu Attack promises to be a meaningful cinematic experience that connects regional stories with national emotions
