They find their female lead in a woman Razia but her husband Suleman refrains from allowing her to perform on the stage.

Performances
Sanjay Mishra has taken the entire responsibility of keeping the audience captivated throughout Dvand The Internal Conflict. He has played the character of director Guru Ji in such a way that watching every scene one understands why Sanjay is so famous in the world of theatre. At the same time, the film's director Ishtiyak Khan also brings a village boy's passion for cinema and acting on screen in an excellent style. Vikram Kochhar and Vishwanath Chatterjee also did not give the impression that they were not residents of any village.
Direction
The director of this film, Ishtiyak Khan, has tried his hands at all film genres for a long time. This experience of his is clearly visible in his direction. At some places in the film, it definitely feels like it has been drawn forcibly. But if you like realistic acting and down-to-earth characters then you will surely enjoy it.
