A still from the film showing the symbolic distribution of Kaala during Melwari  

Every year on Kartik Poornima, a holy full moon day in the Hindu calendar, a group of people from Mangrul in Amravati district congregate for an event called Melwari. Barefoot and carrying flags, the group seems like it's headed for a typical religious gathering. Except that what happens at the congregation is a complete subversion of one of the most defining facets of religion - caste.
