Synopsis
Bandu wants to be a number one boxer. Since he cannot
afford a gym, Bandu practices at home with a determination
to achieve his goal like Eklayva. There is a ‘Panwala’
in front of his house who has shown him an advertisement
that a film producer is searching for a new face for
the film “Boxer No. 1” & the selected
here will get a lot of money. Bandu does a lot of
practice on his own and goes for audition with that
‘Panwala.’ He is so thrilled about the
whole episode, but the producer makes fun of him.
The heroin says ‘come after ten more years.’
Bandu is sad “why do you need so much of money”
his father asks him. Bandu takes his father into confidence
and tells him that his friend Dhondu who stays in
Aadivasi area; whom he met on a school trip, has an
open school under the tree. Dhondu and his friends
can’t have it in the rainy season. Bandu has
promised him that he will go to the city and collect
money to build the school. |
