Synopsis : In rural Maharashtra, the Praan Pratishtha ritual breathes life into a stone idol, symbolizing divinity. Yet, beneath the celebration lies harsh reality: the artisan who carves the idol, a lower-caste man, faces humiliation and oppression. This story of an old man and a young boy reveals the stark contrast between society's reverence for a stone and its dehumanization of marginalized people.
