Story


Katiyabaaz is a 2014 Indian Bollywood drama, documentary film released on Aug 22, 2014. The film is directed by Deepti Kakkar, produced by Deepti Kakkar under banner named Globalistan Films.
This is a story of Kanpur's electricity crisis. This results in load shedding. But, due to this power cut of 15 hours a day, things are very distracting and it causes great trouble to residents and factories. Due to this, the gap in supply and demand becomes the bedrock of local electricity thieves. One of them is Loha Singh, who provides illegal power connection to people. He does this by plugging into official supply through live wires. However such free connection causes heavy financial losses to the power supply in many organizations, whose MD struggles to fight for the power theft. The film follows Loha Singh and his way to supply the electricity to the villagers. In a city with 15 hour power cuts, hundreds of people risk their lives to steal electricity. With the first female chief of the electricity company vowing to eliminate all illegal connections, the lines are drawn for a battle over electricity.

KATIYABAAZ is not for those who like their item songs and ‘ceeti-eliciting’ dialogues. It is for those who love their cinema shaken and stirred!
