In Jawaharlal Nehru's India, dams were symbols of national development and prosperity. Now they have regressed into theatres of interstate dispute. In director Dilip Shankar's movie, the dam becomes the subject of a mystery: what led to the collapse of a barrage that leftover 400 dead and 35 villages submerged. As they say, dam the river, damn the people.
Looking into the causes of a dam burst, NRI architect cum engineer Ravi Malhotra goes missing in Bihar. His anxious wife Anjali travels to India in search of her husband. But her quest is fraught with danger.
Few films have been as fantastically misnamed as Married 2 America. The film's title has little to do with the narrative. The story begins in the USA but soon the action shifts to the badlands of Bihar.
