The trailer introduces Rajiv as Toolsidas, an ace snooker player, who proudly proclaims that he 'only plays for his son'. We see glimpses of his prowess as a cueist along with the goings of his sons, including the titular Toolsidas Junior (played by Varun). But after Toolsidas loses in an important tournament to his arch-rival, his son decides to fulfil his father's dream. For this, he enlists the help of a former snooker champion Mohammad Salam (Sanjay).

The film is claimed to be inspired from true events and is set in Calcutta of 1994. The father-son story went into production back in 2018. Rajiv was supposed to mark his comeback to acting having stayed away from on-screen performances since 1990. However, the actor-director died of a heart attack in January last year. He had finished shooting for the film shortly before his death.
Written and directed by Mridul, the film is set to release on March 4, 2022. It is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Ashutosh Gowariker and Sunita Gowariker.
