Paandhrya
Directed By Sandeep Mane
Paandhrya belongs to a nomadic tribe and his family earn their living by performing acrobatic feats. He attends school in spite of the wrath of his reluctant mother who is already fed up with her drunk husband and worries daily about the survival of her little kids. In his school, Paandhrya, an introvert, is moved by a film that shows a mother’s love and culture. With this new found consciousness he starves for the love of his mother. He also carries an inferiority complex because of a white scar on his lip which also gave the pet name ‘Paandhrya’.
He is trouble not only to his family but for the whole caste because he is determined to go to school. For this crime he has to face the wrath of his mother, the tribe and society. This moral and social suppression tests his determination. He is cornered by everyone. He doesn’t see any hope. Finally he chooses a path out. He rebels!
