The young lad, Ramu, though living in a remote village near the jungles, had dreamt of reaching the stars and leading a good life like he had seen in the rare movie he had seen. He manages to fulfil his ambitions and achieve the impossible.. But does it make him acceptable to others? The book goes on to deal with the class prejudice present in Indian families, and the ambition that drives Ramu to reach the skies.
