Inspired by true events, this is the story of one man's personal battle between right and wrong, his devotion to his country and his love for his wife, until their lives are forever changed after the British use him to steal Sacred Scriptures from the Dalai Lama's Potala Palace in Tibet. In the 1940's, while India struggled to gain independence from the British Empire and Queen Victoria's rule, the British created a secret group known as the Pandits. Their objective was to carry out secret missions to gather information, influence people and organized crime. When they get to the city to seek medical help for Aruna, Nain is fortunate to get a job in a library and print shop. All is well until the British send agents to relay an order from the 'White Sahib' that they want Nain to go to Tibet, sneak into the Dalai Lama's Potala Palace and steal ancient Tibetan Scriptures because the British know Nain has a deep knowledge of Buddhism and want to use him as their agent to get inside the Palace. Dressed as a Buddhist Monk, Nain sneaks into the Potala Palace, steals the Scriptures and flees from the Palace with the Palace Guards in pursuit right behind him. Nain reaches his final destination and hands the Scrolls to a British Agent, leaving those who had helped him deal with their own dire consequences. Filmed on location in Leh, Ladakh (Kashmir), bordering Tibet, and in Pataudi, Haryana, located near Delhi, India.
