Mera Ram Kho Gaya examines the notion of Ram, the ‘supreme’ Hindu god and the Indian caste system through three intersecting narratives of the potter and his donkey, the lives of three close friends Indu, Sahir and Savi and the Ramnamis, which are knit together in a non-linear fashion.
The film critiques the existing traditional manifestations of Ram bhakti and documents an alternative in the form of a subversive movement initiated by the “lower caste” Ramnamis against discrimination and caste-based hierarchies in Hindu religion. The Ramnamis are a Dalit community-based in Chhattisgarh, who have been challenging and reinterpreting the orthodox characterization of Hinduism through their beliefs and practices.
