Shankar(Sooraj Pancholi), a soldier in the Indian Army gets a week off from his duty, owing to an injury he incurs during a crossfire on the border.
But instead of spending this time resting at the hospital, he decides to visit his mother across the country, to help go through her long pending eye operation.
But with the many problems enroute, will he able to reach his mother on time? And report back to duty as promised.
Shankar (Sooraj Pancholi) is called 'Satellite Shankar' because he has a device which seems to transport people to their near and dear ones when they are missing them.
That makes him very popular in his battalion.
Satellite Shankar' attempts to tell the story of the sacrifices soldiers make while they fight for their countrymen at the borders.
Movie has low production values. There is an underlying theme of patriotism.
'Satellite Shankar' is a well intentioned film that gets undone due to bad execution.
Sooraj Pancholi tries his best to put in a sincere performance but it mostly comes off as overenthusiastic & overTried..!!
