A movie on the life of a Buddhist monk. Though he was sent to monastery when he was small, after going through three years of meditation and getting the Khenpo degree from Lama he starts thinking of life. Without 'living the life' how can he know the difference. Even 'Budha' had a family life before coming out of palace in the night in search of peace. Thus he comes out for 'LIVING', marries a girl of his choice and leads a life like any common man. He also falls for money, pleasure and finally starts feeling the meaninglessness of life when he gets a message from his teacher. He leaves his family and goes back to his old school. His wife meets him on the way and asks what about her life?? He attained 'realization' at the expense of her life. How can she leave her son and do the same thing what he has done?? What Budha has done for the people to realize the 'spontaneity of life' he could not understand. To understand that he has gone through all sorts of emotions...Then he realizes that his wife is having a better understanding on Samsara than him and living a normal life also one can attain spirituality.
The location of the film, Ladakh is very beautiful. Maybe the government can use the film for Tourism promotion. The photography and music excellent. The starting scene has given a lot more promise than what followed. Even then the movie is good to watch as it shows 'LIFE'.
