Synopsis Set in an impoverished agrarian village, Chauranga follows 10-year-old Bheema, a bright and curious Dalit child who believes school can lift him and his family out of marginalization. Bheema’s gentle optimism draws the attention of a sympathetic schoolteacher and the local moneylender’s son, whose growing interest in Bheema’s world blurs the lines between compassion and control. As Bheema strives to attend school, the village’s caste hierarchy—maintained by violence, land ownership, and the complicity of local authorities—mounts invisible but crushing pressure. Tragedy sparks when a moment of resistance by Bheema’s family leads to retaliation that reverberates through the community, revealing how cycles of exploitation are protected by silence and fear.
