Synopsis

A government school in India decides to stage a play about the great poet Kanakadasa. The main character, Vedik, is the son of a local MLA, and his goal is to build a political career by forcing Vedik to attend the school. When Vedik finds it hard to portray Kanakadasa’s role convincingly, the play is temporarily halted by MLA’s influence. However, a fine turn of events leads to Vedik changing his mind and turning to philosophy instead. This newfound interest in Kanakadasa’s life and work inspires Vedik to help the poor, and his parents eventually realize this and take him to a variety of professionals to try and fix him. In the end, Vedik performs Kanakadasa’s role in the play and wins first prize. Everyone in the audience appreciates his newfound interest in learning and life.
