Kotee (Dhananjay) is an honest man, an extremely rare breed in the current times and he is trying to make a living as a driver where he rents a truck for his packers and movers stint as well as a cab to become independent. His goal is to earn 1crore, only glitch is that he wants to do it honestly. He has an ailing mother and siblings to take care of. But he is targeted by a local goon Savukar, who offers him a deal which Kotee promptly declines. This leads to Savukar throwing multiple hurdles at Kotee, disrupting his life enough to force him to accept the deal. How does Kotee get out of this mess and why exactly he has chosen to be a honest man, forms rest of the story.

Param has definitely come up with a near perfect characterization for Dhananjay and Kotee is definitely a praiseworthy character. The hero is an extremely nice guy till the very end and to hold onto that throughout, is a commendable job. But I wish the screenplay was better to compliment the lead hero character as the love story segment remains half baked and keeps distracting from the main plot. Even the family sentiment is dragged out like a tv serial and the slow paced narrative doesn't help the film being 2hrs 50mins which was simply too long. The supposed twist in the climax was so predictable, it didn't help elevate the climax. Dhananjay, Ramesh Indira and all others have given earnest performances, adding to this is the cameo by Vijay Kumar in the flashback. If Param had worked on a better screenplay and kept the runtime in check, then Kotee could have ended up as a memorable film.
