Four Friends

Arjun Rahane was just like any other professional. Each day started with his office and ended cosily at home with family. To Arjun, it appeared, the routine would keep repeating throughout his life. But then, one day, life suddenly took a turn. Arjun was charged with murder, of his wife Falgun. Before he could recover from the loss, he was thrown in prison, in the jungle, amidst dacoits, robbers and gangsters – an unimaginable truth. Within a few days, Arjun became an untouchable. His relatives, friends and subordinates, all fled, leaving him alone. Other than his aged parents no one came forward to help. He felt crippled and lonely. In the prison, Arjun soon found … the punitive legislation on bride’s death was horrendously drafted against, police was lethargic, and media … seemed enslaved with bias. With judiciary appearing more than willing to turn away, Arjun hopelessly stared into darkness … it seemed an un-winnable battle.
