The Man With The H1B Visa

License to Shill… and Overstay.

Jeet Bond, Punjab’s most eligible H-1B holder and India’s deadliest export since butter chicken, is sent to Silicon Valley on a mission that’s equal parts espionage and TPS extension. A rogue AI startup called “Bro-ket” (run by a villainous ex-Google bro) is stealing Indian engineers’ souls and replacing them with LinkedIn influencers.

Armed with only a MacBook Pro, expired OPT paperwork, and a lethal knowledge of Excel shortcuts, Jeet must seduce a chain of visa officers, out-code quantum bros, survive the DMV, and stop the villain from automating every desi job in America—while keeping his own visa alive past the 6-year limit. Shake his mango lassi, not his chai.

Why This Movie Exists

Because someone had to make the James Bond film that actually reflects the real 21st-century spy thriller: navigating USCIS bureaucracy, H-1B lotteries, and the quiet desperation of “Sir, your extension is under review.” It’s a loving roast of both Bond glamour and the immigrant tech hustle—equal parts satire and wish-fulfillment for every desi who’s ever been asked “but where are you really from?” at a team offsite.

Iconic Dialogue

  • “The name’s Bond… Jeet Bond. H-1B, non-immigrant intent… for now.”

  • “This is going to be a short mission, M. My visa expires in 47 days.”

  • Villain: “You’ll never stop progress, Bond!” Jeet: “Progress? Bro, you replaced 200 IITians with one prompt. That’s not innovation, that’s laziness with venture capital.”

  • “I expect you to die… in the layoff wave.”

  • “Shaken, not stirred… and extra elaichi.”

Fun Facts

  • The opening title sequence features Jeet skydiving into a H-1B lottery drum while dodging rejection stamps.

  • The Bond girl is an immigration lawyer named Priya “No, I can’t expedite that” Patel.

  • The villain’s lair is a WeWork that somehow still has free cold brew in 2029.

  • Real IIT alumni were hired as fight choreographers for the “code review battle” scene.

  • The end credits roll over Jeet finally getting his green card… only for the post-credits scene to reveal Trump 2028 is back and the lottery is canceled.

  • The film was shot entirely on a student visa for maximum method acting.
