The Plot
A young boy (Saurabh Gogate) from a family of preachers who are doing full time preaching is not keen to take up the family profession but due to friend’s advice, he accepts a preacher’s job in Germany where he meets Antara, (Deepti Devi) an atheist, who hates religious leaders for a valid reason. The boy hides his real identity as he starts loving her. She proves to him that God is created only to threaten people and preachers do not have anything substantial to sell to their clients. His friends play a role in proving how religion is made only for politics and his uncle is also a reason for him to believe that the temples are just means of earnings for preachers. His father, (Manoj Joshi) a very honest believer, is the only person who can help the boy complete the journey of realization by answering questions about God, religion and temples. His gather’s explanation is decoded for the boy through the experience created by Antara.
