An ASI archaeologist, Dr. Aryan Kulshreshtra is a strong believer in scientific facts. He does not believe in God. He has already discovered, with an international team from India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Japan, the treasure of Raja Dahir and a large reclining Buddha statue - both near the Buddhas of Bamyan in Afghanistan after their destruction by the Taliban (with Dahir's treasure later being divided between India and Pakistan in Islamabad).[a]
In 2007, in an effort by the government to demolish the Rama Setu for building a canal, Aryan is asked to draft a report for the Supreme Court of India showing that the bridge is a natural formation. He initially rejects the offer not having studied the bridge himself but after being promised a promotion, he submits a report stating that "Ramayana is an epic fiction, not history" and questions the existence of Rama. Thus, he is met with complete hostility. In court, the government is humiliated by the report, submitted as an affidavit, as it questions the existence of Rama, and the public is furious.[b] The consequences lead to Aryan getting suspended temporarily. In school, Aryan's son is bullied by his classmates who say his father is "Ravana" because he does not believe in the "Ramayana or Rama". Feeling ashamed, he punches the other kid, and Aryan's parents are called to the principal's office. Where the boy's parents also show hostility towards Aryan.
Meanwhile, Aryan has also got an offer from a rich businessman Indrakant who wants the Rama Setu demolished for his good. He tries to persuade Aryan to join an archaeological exploration and research for Rama Setu. He rejects it fearing more hostility from the public but after the incident with his son, he decides to prove the "truth". Aryan hence, accepts the mission and meets fellow scientists who are with him on the mission. He meets the gorgeous Dr. Sandra Rebello and Dr. Gabrielle. Initial research shows that Rama Setu is 18,000 years old which is much older than Rama himself who according to Pushkar Bhatnagar in Dating The Era of Lord Ram was born more than 7,000 years ago. This was not enough for Aryan so he decides to bring another floating rock from Ram Setu and uses carbon dating to find its age, he also visits deep underwater and finds coral reefs. This starts to prove that Rama Setu is indeed man-made, about 7000 years ago, and has a possibility of being built by Rama. He reports this to Indrakant who appreciates Aryan's impartiality towards the mission. However, Indrakant only wants proof that Rama Setu is older than Rama and hence it is not built by him so that they can demolish the structure and save money and fuel for their project. Hence he decides to get the three killed. On another mission to extract more rocks from Rama Setu, Dr. Gabrielle, Dr. Sandra Rebello, and Aryan go deepwater. Suddenly their, submarine stops working and they get stuck, with low oxygen levels, they desperately try to escape, meanwhile, Indrakant's men are happy about this development and want them killed.
The three manage to escape with the help of a man on a boat named Anjaneyan Pushpakumaran "AP". He rescues them and takes them to a remote island in Sri Lanka which is currently affected by the ongoing civil war, where he agrees to help their cause. He says that he will help them out but only for financial remuneration. In the end, Aryan is able to stop the canal's construction and prove in court that - Rama Setu was indeed man-made and the story of Ramayana is true (by finding archaeological evidence of Lanka in Ashok Vatika, Seetha Amman Temple, Ella, and Sri Pada in Sri Lanka), that Rama could have existed and comes to the conclusion that Anjaneyan was not an ordinary human but Hanuman himself.[c]
