On hearing the mythological tale of king Satyavrat and the fish who rescues humanity from a flood, they become convinced that the aquatic creature alone can save Chaani’s terminally ill mother. The only problem is that they live in a village where there is no water to drink, leave alone to keep a fish.

How will their fish Pipsi, named after a local cold drink that is abundantly available in the village, live?
