Description:
A sequel to 'Krishna, A Love Story', 'Rahul' is set against the backdrop of two critical events that impacted Indian political history in the late 1960s and early 1970s. One was the rise of a Maoist movement espousing the cause of landless farmers; the other, India's war with Pakistan, which led to the creation of Bangladesh.
Like thousands of young students, many from affluent families, Rahul, himself the son of a landowner, is drawn to the Maoists.Eventually, the movement was infiltrated by the CIA. With he movement's collapse,many Maoists (also known as Naxalites) found refuge in North America. Rahul was one such beneficiary.
