Khoya - in search of roots
A character in search of his roots, ventures through remote corners of Northern India. An already well to do and successful entity in the eyes of his urban circle, he finds to his surprise how the fulfillment brought on by the little things encountered during this long travel: Be it the hospitality of the villagers or helping out at the local home-stays and farms he is compelled to stay in - leaves a deeper imprint on him than any accolades and luxuries he strived so hard to achieve all those years in his career.
He realizes this is the moulding and experiences he so craved for without knowing it, without being able to articulate it. He realizes how he finds himself and the missing dots left for him through losing himself in the unknown - 'Khoya'.
