Synopsis-
“If by laying our life even if a tree is saved, then our life is worthed.” — A common saying in the Bishnois community.
An afraid Chinkara (deer) cried for help in the deep recesses of a cold winter night in the desert. Shaitan Singh Bishnoi, a farmer, rushed out to his rescue. Shaitan opposes the hunters, but they shoot him dead. The young bride of Shaitan, Pushpa, is left to herself with her two children. Pushpa is determined to carry forward the legacy of her husband of environment conservation.
The chinkara dies by a dog bite leaving behind young chinkara who cannot stay without mother’s care. Pushpa adopts the baby chinkara and calls him Kishan. And what happens thereafter remains.
