This documentary by Witty Chokha journalist Rohit Jha captures the untold aftermath of Dashrath Manjhi’s extraordinary story the “Mountain Man” who carved a path through stone but whose own family was left behind in poverty.
Filmed in Gehlour village, Bihar, the report reveals how Bhagirath Manjhi, Dashrath’s son, continues to live in neglect and despair, despite his father’s global fame.
Decades after political visits, government assurances, and Bollywood tributes, the Manjhi family still lacks a proper house, healthcare, and support.
Through emotional interviews and on-ground visuals, this documentary exposes the hypocrisy of politics, corruption, and public memory, showing how India glorifies its heroes but forgets their families.
More than a story about one man, this is a reflection of India’s rural injustice where those who truly shape the nation’s destiny are celebrated in speeches but abandoned in life.
