Kuhaan, adapted from Mujtaba Hussain’s satirical story Pani 2050, is a poignant dystopian tale set in a future where water is not just scarce — it’s currency. Amidst this arid reality, a young mother embarks on a desperate quest to uncover the cause of a mysterious hump forming on her little son's spine. As she seeks answers from the sage to modern doctors, what unfolds is not a medical mystery, but a chilling revelation: nature is responding to humanity’s unquenchable greed. Kuhaan is a powerful reflection on environmental neglect, survival, and the unforeseen consequences of exploiting the earth’s most vital resource.
