Synopsis

Jai Mata Di! Pilgrims chant as the host, Kash Gauni, makes his way to the ancient mountain cave dwelling of the Mother Warrior Goddess, Vaishno Devi in the Jammu & Kashmir region of India. This incredible immortal avatar invites people to her cave with unique invitations and a promise to make their wishes come true. Kash, who had made his own wish eight years prior is curious if he might be one of the lucky ones. He joins the throng of pilgrims in the tiny terrorist stricken, remote Himalayan pathway with only one-way plane tickets and the intention to meet Her.
