On 14th April, the birth anniversary of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Dalit-Bahujan communities across India celebrate with chants of "Jai Bhim!" This story follows Seema Valmiki, a young Dalit woman migrated from Uttar Pradesh joins a government job in Mumbai. At her office, the elderly liftman recognizes her caste from her ID card and greets her warmly with "Jai Bhim!"—a gesture that leaves her both uneasy and conflicted. Days before Ambedkar Jayanti, the liftman is unfairly fired after an argument, and Seema fails to defend him. Torn between hiding her identity or embracing it with pride, she faces the question: will she find the courage to stand tall and greet the world with a fearless "Jai Bhim!"?
