PlotEdit

The plot begins with the hamlet experiencing a serious water shortage due to a lack of rain in recent years, so the poor people do a puja to the rain god. This causes torrential rains, which delights entire villages as they develop piles of crops. Because of the harvest, the villagers hold a big fair, which introduces the meat of the story. The main protagonist Krishna, who is beloved by the villagers, decides to play Abhimanyu in a mythological play, which leads him to meet and fall in love with a girl from Mumbai, which hurts rural girl Padma, who always wants Krishna well, resulting in a plot twist.[3]
