Vote

The film revolves around a respected educator, Hari Master and his two sons Biplab and Sangram. Following his retirement, Hari Master`s health deteriorates and he becomes physically incapacitated. The two brothers eventually go on to marry their respective wives who happen to belong to opposing political parties. A battle ensues between the two brothers during election time as to which party gets to secure the old man`s vote, only to end in a tragic twist resulting in Hari Master`s sudden death. The brothers make amends with each other after this but not before learning a bitter tasting lesson.

Directed by Debasis Mohapatra, Vote leans on a strong ensemble — Shreya Mohanty, Usasi Misra, Hara Rath — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2024.
