Plot
Ekda Kaay Zala literally means, once upon a time. It is essentially the story of a storyteller. The protagonist of the film- Kiran, is a family man. Father to a 9 year old boy, Kiran strongly believes in the power of storytelling. He firmly believes that stories have the power to entertain, infuse hope, teach universal life lessons and move you to tears.
Storytelling is omnipotent, and omnipresent and appeals to everyone, irrespective of age. With this conviction that kids learn and absorb much more, through stories being narrated to them through various art forms such as drama, dance etc. rather than the usual conventional methods, he runs a unique school using the idea of storytelling as a pedagogical tool.
His 9 year old son idolizes him, emulates him in every way and aspires to be like him. The father-son duo shares an inseparable bond.
In a cruel twist of fate, an unexpected event leads to an upheaval in their lives.
