Directed by Ashutosh Govarikar, the film is an epic love story, set in the Indus Valley civilisation. "For Mohenjo Daro, I am travelling back in time. It has been a great journey, great experience. I really believe it is going to be one of my best films. I hope and pray that the audience also agrees with it when the film releases," Hrithik told reporters.

The film's plot is reportedly about the protagonist, played by Hrithik, who falls in love with his enemy's daughter, a role essayed by newcomer Pooja Hegde.
