‘Mokalik’ follows the career of an 11-year-old boy, Jaiye, from the middle-class suburbs who spends the day as a lowly apprentice at a mechanic workshop in order to view life from the other side of the tracks.

‘Mokalik’ will, not only, bring to life relatable humour but also mirrors the world of local automobile repairers and the people around them. For example, the audience will definitely immediately relate with a scene where a young boy crushing on an older lady asks if she will ever marry a mechanic.
