Deep in the wild jungles of Rajasthan resides a magical sparrow that grants wishes . . . In Gujarat, a pandit haggles with vendors and chastises merchants as he chases an elusive bargain . . . A bullocky in Multan encounters a mysterious and wise old man who charges money to talk! A pandemonium of fools, geniuses and everyone in between gambol across the deserts of India to amusing and delightful results. So sit back with a bowlful of kheench and get ready to be enchanted by the beauty of the Thar, the nights at Cholistan and the markets of Kutch.
