ABOUT ‘ARYAMAN’
The film is the story of Emperor Asoka, who after the destructive war of Kalinga decides to find a way to save mankind from future destruction. Along with the nine wise men of knowledge he creates a force and contains it in a medallion. This medallion is dormant for 3000 years and in the present day finds its way to Ashok, a young, good hearted boy who then becomes our superhero.
He must then deal with the problems that come with being a school going superhero which means he has to drink his milk, do his homework, save the world and pass his exams. How he deals with the pressures of being an eight year old, school going, crime fighting, world saving machine is the story of the film.
THE INSPIRATION
Gaurav says, “I always wanted to do an Indian super hero script, while working on it we decided to treat it a little differently and explore the problems of being a super hero and the challenges it brings. Besides, the plan was to do something fun, that the audience would enjoy and be free of the shackles of gods and myths.”
