Author Description

Saptagram, a cluster of seven villages. Since ages the people here have been following a tradition very religiously - Every three years they organize a grand Buffalo-race. Buffalos born in Saptagram only are eligible to participate in the race and the owner of the winning buffalo is announced the Village head for the consecutive three years. Khirapur and Mirapur villages are part of Saptgram. Lallaram from Khirapur village has been the Village head of Saptagram since last 15 years. The citizens of Saptagram are very unhappy with this because Lallaram is more concerned with filling his treasury than the welfare of Saptagram.

When a female buffalo is pregnant with Gullan's eighth off-spring he expires and MILTON is born. Milton is the last hope for Jalaram & the citizens of Saptagram.
