He travels to Delhi where he meets a couple of young gay boys who have found their way and learns about the harshness of life for those without his privileges.

From there he goes to Mumbai, on the start of a spiritual quest, with a list of places south of there where he feels he might find answers...and there he meets Selim, who is not privileged, whose mother is a prostitute and sister a schoolgirl, trying to make his way in the world and life better for his family.
