Hindi Vindi

Kabir, a 17-year-old teenage boy, is conflicted about his cultural identity and struggles with a language barrier when his Indian grandmother comes to live with him in Sydney. The relationship between the two is strained, but they bond over music. When grandma suffers a cardiac arrest, Kabir sets out on a mission to learn Hindi and wants to surprise her with a Hindi rap song at an inter-college festival. This experience transforms Kabir, instilling in him a deep appreciation for language and cultural connection. After 2 years, Kabir is a global icon and a renowned musician who promotes language and culture through music and performs Hindi rap at an International music festival in Mumbai to honour his grandmother.
