Synopsis :

The story revolves around Dhanu and Rakhma living in a labourer settlement in a small village. One day Dhanu comes across migrant workers walking back to their home towns far away due to unavailability of income source. Frustrated, he comes to a river bank, where last rites of a deceased are being performed. He asks the priest for any possibility of getting work. Priest, reluctant at first, allows him to help clean the place. Pleased with his good efforts, priest offers him a job as his assistant and starts paying him regularly.
One day the local leader known as a “Gold Man” passes away and his funeral and last rites are to be held at the regular cemetery. But due to lockdown, policemen are appointed to restrict the number of people attending all the funerals. Rakhma, on the other hand is worried constantly thinking about Dhanu’s source of income. Dhanu, not wanting to miss this opportunity, reaches the cemetery to collect the ashes and find gold, but it was proved again that the destiny is cruel.
