Large scale scams are one of Bollywood's favourite subjects, and Setters is the second movie in a short while (after "Why Cheat India") to deal with the subject of the examination mafia. It's a country with a ridiculous amount of competition for a very limited number of opportunities, and it is surprise that a few unscrupulous people try to take advantage of this fact.
Director Ashwini Chaudhary tackles Setters like a police procedural drama, but does that with the criminal side too - exploring their modus operandi and the way they go about their business.
