At RLS Productions in New York City, Indian-Americans Simrin and Priya, join their boss, Bob, whose ancestry is European, in hearing a pitch for a movie, from PG, a writer who mysteriously went AWOL after impressing them with part of his story a few years before. And as the increasingly enchanted producers listen, PG, who may or may not be telling a true story, weaves a tale of two interconnected families whose warm bond overcomes their cultural differences. The story stretches from India, to England, to the United States, in a colorful tapestry of family love, epic tragedy, and calamitous encounters with history. Redolent with rich tones of Hindu philosophy and culture, Kanishka melds historical fact with fiction, to show the human cost of blind ideology and make a compelling case for love surviving beyond the grave.
