Hailing from Longsa village in Nagaland's Mokokchung district, Ao's big break came with Axone, directed by Richard Kharkongkor. The film set in Delhi, follows a group of friends from northeast India who are preparing a pungent delicacy for a wedding party. However, the racism and casteism in the area sparks conflict and comedy with their unaccustomed neighbours.
