It is the story of how these four discover one another, and come together to raise hell, shaking the powers that be to their very roots!
But, Satyagraha is also the story of an influential power-hungry despot who will stop at nothing to destroy them.
The story revolves around Dwarka Anand (Amitabh Bachchan), a retired teacher, is an idealistic man, somewhere in the heartland of India. He is a satyavadi and believes that one should give back to the society, the country, all they have given to us.
His son Akhilesh is an civil engineer who dream is to build the best fly over in the country. Akhilesh’s friend Manav (Ajay Devgan) has come to stay at their place. Manav is an ambitious capitalist, and the retired school teacher is averse to this youth’s capitalist dreams…
Akhilesh dies in an accident. The Home Minister of the state (Manoj Bajpai) announces an amount of compensation of Rs 25 Lakhs to his bereaved family. His wife Sumitra (Amrita Rao) wants to set up a local school in her city, gets sick of her visits to the collector’s office to collect the amount. Dwarka Anand visits the Collector’s office, and is incensed with this laid back attitude. The old man ends up as him slapping the Collector.

Jha’s ‘Satyagraha’ is the story of a son who yearns for a father. Of a
father, who grieves for his lost son. Of a young woman who fights so
hard with life that she has forgotten to love. Of an ambitious
rabble-rouser, for whom action is the knee-jerk mantra.

Immediately Dwarka Anand is arrested and is imprisoned. Sumitra sends SOS to her Manav bhaiya, who rushes to the city and starts a campaign to free Dwarka Anand, using social media, also with the help of local leader Arjun Singh (Arjun Rampal) and television journalist Yasmin Ahmed’s (Kareena Kapoor) support.
Thus begins the revolution.
