    • Moti Kahn, a musically gifted child from the lower caste of Muslim Manganiyars of the Thar desert, is forced to sing and play music for their hereditary patrons, to survive. But Moti finds singing for their patrons humiliating as they are still treated lowly. Sattar, his father, wants Moti to study and make a successful career outside music but Moti aspires to be a successful singer so that he is treated respectfully in the village. So Moti leaves his village behind and sets out on the journey for the remote city.
