After being confronted with the profound words of a deceased man's son, Kishan makes a life-altering decision to abandon his role as a cremator in Varanasi, a city steeped in spirituality and tradition. This moment of enlightenment propels him on a journey of transformation, marking the start of a new chapter far from the ghats where life meets its end.
His decision sets him on a transformative journey, fraught with challenges that shape him for an unforeseen future. In the depths of India's largest slum, Kishan finds love, gains wealth, and rises to power, unwittingly challenging the country's elite. This clash escalates into a fight for survival and the well-being of the slum's community that depends on him.
"Kishan" is a vivid narrative set in the heart of India, charting a journey from the ghats of Varanasi to the bustling life of the slums. It's a tale of resilience, confronting societal norms, and the relentless pursuit of a better life.
