Synopsis

Chhotu’s dream is to go to school. He’s clever and everyone knows it, but he has to work in a roadside restaurant to support his family instead. A chance meeting with a Prince, who admires his camel handling skills, inspires Chhotu to challenge his own destiny.

Our take

A delightful tale where aspirations, dreams, and childhood innocence collide. Chhotu, an errand boy at a small tea stall, derives inspiration from the former President of India, A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, and decides to rechristen himself after him. Does changing a name change one’s destiny?
