The film is set in the cow belt of India during the 1990s. It is an amusing satire inspired by true events that came into light when a distinct animal-loving veterinary doctor chances upon a tangled web of corruption in his local state hospital.

Talking about the film, Ajay Devgn told Variety, “The story of Gobar is at once unique, relatable, and incredibly funny, as well as gripping and entertaining to the point that I’m confident it will compel people to go to the theatres. We are very clear about the impact we want to make. We want viewers to laugh, relax, perhaps think a little bit and be entertained.”

The forthcoming film will be directed by ad filmmaker Sabal Shekhawat. It has been written by Sabal and Sambhit Mishra. ‘Gobar’ is all set to go on floors at the end of the year.
