This is the story of an ascetic living in a remote Monastery established on the banks of Godavari in Nanded, who became the disciple of tenth Nanak, Guru Gobind Singh Sahib. He challenged the might of the powerful Mughals Empire, and went on to establish the rule of the Khalsa within a very short span of time. This is an inspirational story of commitment, humility, courage, dedication and sacrifice.
