Experiencing Interruptions?

The Wedding Bandit

Raya is a young woman engaged to be married to her wealthy fiancée Vikram, who she met through an online matrimonial website. That is until she finds out some harrowing details about his past and how Vikram is really a con man who has scammed and violated dozens of other women over the years. Raya comes up with a plan to get even and make sure the world knows who the real Vikram is, while empowering the other female victims to overcome their trauma and hold Vikram accountable for the damage he has done.
