PURUSHOTTAM

Purushottam is a story based on true events, is a story of transition, true to all
ancient civilisations and cities in the face of modern urbanisation.
The conflict between holding on to the roots and embracing the modern
amenities leads to a situation in the Historic city of Aurangabad, where an honest IAS
officer who is the municipal commissioner is faced with the issue of providing basic
civic amenities to the citizens while handling the corrupt system and religious forces
and giving justice to basic human rights.
Slowly the whole city is engulfed in the conflict, only to see the justice and good
prevail.
