Plot
[edit]The film begins with two school teachers, David, a Christian, & Geeta, an orthodox Brahmin Hindu girl, wedlock in an interreligious marriage. Hence, their families have ostracized them, but they lead a delightful life by respecting two traditions. Geeta conceives and gives birth to a baby boy. David notifies two families, and they visit to view the newborn. The couple's heart fills with joy & excitement about acquiring folks. Soon, divergences emerge of their lifestyles & customs. Day by day, it is haywire by religious strife esteeming their own. David & Geeta agonize over getting tramped by the narcissists but remain steadfast in their shared goal. However, the mean men forcibly attempt to obtain the kid into their creed and conduct a ritual of Baptism & Nāmakaraṇa. Amidst the chaos, Geeta is vexed & transcends caste, who titles the child as Kranti at Mahatma Gandhi 's statue. The ego clash arises between the couple about the decision, stating the baby is their right. They split, and the knaves have new cracks when Geeta seeks self-sacrifice. David is conscious of the family's duplicity and rushes to secure Geeta with his idealization. At the very worst, the blockheads' superstition over the religion continues for the kid. Whereat, David rebukes proclaiming the eminence of mankind and declares their decision to raise their child ideally that defies societal norms & prejudices. At last, David proclaims to get rid of their life and always welcomes them as a people of humanity. Finally, the movie ends happily with the couple's reunion.
