Hindu mythology served as inspiration for the Rishyasringar tale. Wherever he went, Rishyasringar possessed the ability to deliver rain. A wise man names the infant Rishyasringar after discovering him in the wilderness. The youngster has strength inside him even if he grows up knowing nothing about the outside world. His amazing penance causes it to rain wherever he goes. A Brahmin has cursed King Romapada of Angdesa, leaving his realm parched and impoverished as a result. He learns about Rishyasringar and sends Maya, a prostitute, to entice him and bring him to his nation so he may break the curse. This was the tale that was told in the movie.
