This film depicts the Glory and Greatness of Sri Ramanujacharya (1017-1137 CE) and also the reforms that he brought in social life. A thousand years ago, in a society riddled with blatant caste-based oppression, one man championed the cause of the downtrodden. One man single highhandedly heralded a cultural storm, bearing the torch of original Vedic knowledge. One man opened the doors of the temples wide to the hitherto banned "untouchables". And today, millions come together to pay tribute to this one man, this one man, this saint nonpareil who paved the way for a modern, inclusive spiritual awakening. Today, Sri Ramanujacharya Swamy is more than a holy name. He is a beacon of the equality and hope for the generations to come.—Pradeep Kumar Reddivari
