This is the extraordinary story of a hitman who became a de-addiction counselor and outran his demons. Rahul Jadhav took the name Bhiku from ‘Satya’, a gangster who was everything he once wanted to be. Capturing his don’s attention as a tech-literate criminal, running his extortion ring over Skype, Rahul found himself shouting threats down the barrel of his gun and became one of the most wanted gangsters of his time. He was arrested in 2007, dealt with drug abuse and went into a near schizophrenic state. Today, he is an ultra-marathoner who has covered nearly 10,000 km.
