History unfolds many truths. The more we dig in, the more we come to know about the realities of the past. But sometimes, some truths remain hidden and unventured. It is our wisdom and sixth sense with which we discover those hidden truths. The history of Kohinoor is one such example. Is the Kohinoor we know truly the Babur's stone? The hard facts of past strongly raises this question. What if the original Babur's stone is in our city of joy? The nail-biting end reveals an ultimate hidden truth, a lost wisdom, perhaps a true light on our ancient past. It is indeed a light, Mountain of light.

Sanaya is a lady in her mid 30s, an US citizen of Indian origin, who doesn’t have any known blood-relation in this world. The only person she calls her family is her husband Mihir, who she lives with. The couple is currently going through a turning-point in their life, trying to choose between adoption and pregnancy in order to extend their family. Mihir prefers the former as opposed to Sanaya, who has her own conviction on the ‘purity’ of blood-relation. Very recently Sanaya found her 1st degree cousin, Tushar, through the Ancestry portal (a popular human genome project). She visits India, for the first time ever in her life, to meet Tushar and his family. The ‘reunion’ goes fairly well until she finds out some striking facts.
