RANG BAJRANG

A story of the draught stricken times where the draught is also a metaphor for the loss of trust and hope in life. Somewhere along the Haryana-Rajasthan border, Chaudhari Deen Dayal's family has seen happier times. But the draught has created pessimism in the life of his daughter Nandini (Nandu) who is becoming overage for marriage. Because of her dark skin and sometimes for her sheer intelligence, Nandu has been rejected so many times for marriage that now she denies her dreams and is convinced nothing can elevate her drab future.

Her brother Mahipat is a very practical man, who has no dreams or hopes and is constantly at loggerheads with the younger brother who is a dreamer. As Chaudhari Deen Dayal struggles to keep his family and land together, in comes a stranger, Bajrangali.....A man who claims to sell Rain!

While Chaudhari Deen Dayal is ready to play this game of chance Nandu and Mahipat are convinced that the man is a criminal and fraudster whom the police inspector, Samar Singh is looking for.

Is it really possible to make things happen with the power of faith? Can the past and unhappiness be overcome by just believing in happiness? Can we make things happen in our lives just by aspiring for them and opening all our doors? Do we create obstacles for ourselves?

In these times of draught, unemployment, pessimism, distrust and even......boredom, is Bajrangali a magician, a fraud or a miracle man?

Is he God?

Why is he interfering in the emotions of this household? And

Does he bring Rain.............?

Rang Bajrang is an adaptation of Richard Nash's Rainmaker.
