Daaka is an Indian Punjabi-language action comedy film[1] directed by Baljit Singh Deo.[2] The film was released on November 1, 2019.
Daaka is a movie about two poverty-stricken men who have their own set of problems to deal with. One, named Shinda is a love bird who falls for the daughter of a retired school teacher, who is financially well off. The other, Balli, is the father of a girl child who is suffering from a stomach tumour. These men co-own a mobile repair 'khokha' but in order to sustain their business, they must pay the shop owner 2.5 lacs or else they'll lose their space. When they manage to somehow gather a handsome sum to pay the shop owner, things take an unplanned turn and they're left with just a plan and that too of robbing their village bank. When they are robbing the bank, the criminal being held in the Jail cell escapes. This leads to a whole sequence of events, leaving both Shinda and Balli wanted by the police.
