Synopsis : A madly-in-love Hindu girl and Muslim boy flee persecution in their village and are compelled to live in the city pavements like countless migrants. Beside their settlement they see a throne-like armchair in a grand showroom where they promise to sit together one day as king and queen. Leading harsh lives as a van-puller and a housemaid they stake everything to attain their desire. Tempted by wealth, intellectualism and power they explore the society's dark underbelly and its elite upper crust. In the backdrop of the rising threat of displacement on the country’s dispossessed population will their love survive? Will their desire destroy their love? Or can they rise from their own ashes like a phoenix and transform their desired seat of power into a seat of love?
