The State League: Elite Sports F.C vs Delhi Warriors

COMMITTED TO FOOTBALL
COMMITTED TO THE NATION

Prithvi is back-older, sharper, and hungry to prove himself at Elite Sports F.C. When a glittering new youth league promises foreign scouts, European tours and IPL-style broadcasts, his dreams finally feel within reach.
 
But the beautiful game has a dark side. Matches are being fixed. Players are being groomed. And those in charge are looking away. As Prithvi fights to stay relevant, the ugly trail leads closer to home than he ever imagined. Meanwhile, his best friend on the team – a boy from Manipur – is at the centre of a national controversy, fracturing a bond that once felt unbreakable.

In a league where results can be decided before kick-off and ambition and loyalty are questioned, Prithvi faces a gut-wrenching choice: stay silent and chase the win, or risk everything to speak out?
