Boong Movie Story
Boong tells the story of two young boys from India and their brave journey. Boong is a playful schoolboy who often loves playing small jokes. His father has gone to another place for work. They notice racism, discrimination against transgender people, and rising community tensions. They also begin to understand why someone might want Boong to believe that his father is dead.
Boong is a schoolboy who believes nothing is impossible. He wants to give his mother, Mandakini, the best surprise gift. He dreams of bringing his father, Joykumar, back home. Joykumar left Manipur and went to the border town of Moreh near Myanmar to find better work. After some time, he stopped contacting his family. Soon, rumors started spreading that he had died.
