Th drama is loosely based on the career of notorious crime lord “Bindy” Singh Johal and the Punjabi gangs of second -and third- generation Indian immigrants operating on Canada’s West Coast in the 1990s.
Jeet Johar (Randeep Hooda) is a devoted family man and observant member of the Jat Sikh community. He is also a merciless gangster who fronts a pack of nattily dressed young toughs known as the Beeba Boys. Competing with other local Asian gangs for supremacy in the Vancouver drugs-and-arms-trafficking racket, Jeet leads his boys into battle to fight for their piece of this lucrative pie, and for the respect they believe they deserve. Yet Jeet also finds time to mentor a volatile new gang member (Ali Momen) and seduce a beautiful woman (Sarah Allen) serving on the jury at the murder trial.
