Plot

The movie has a lot of poetry within itself. Anita Kanwar is an unconventional girl lacking confidence. All people around her, including her brother, keep advising her "how she should be." Then, a magician who can bring rain comes into their lives. He helps her realize the potential of believing. He brings back beauty and confidence to her. Now, she realizes altogether a different life, just because of believing or changing her perception.

The theme of the movie is also said to be inspired by the critically acclaimed The Rainmaker (play) written by N. Richard Nash.
