The Calf Doll | Khaal Bachhda

In a smog-choked village, a retired professor faces a dilemma when his cow delivers a stillborn calf. Abandoned by his farmhand for a job in the industrial town, he reluctantly turns to the forbidden ritual of crafting a life-like calf doll from the stillborn’s body, despite his wife’s warnings. Together, they struggle between tradition and change as the quiet rhythms of rural life collapse around them slowly under the inevitable weight of modernization.
