Private Project

Jai Mata Di

This is a story of a young guy named Tushar, coming from a middle class family in Mumbai. Having completed his graduation, his search for a job has begun. He had submitted his resume to around 21 companies but none responded. Gradually his frustration and depression started increasing. How was Tushar going to deal with this? Would he take the same path as others and pray to God to get the job? Tushar is an atheist so he won’t do it for sure. But everyone does remember God when they are in a devastating situation. How did God help him to find the way out? The story of 'Jai Mata Di' revolves around this theme.
