Synopsis

Ganesha, a young elephant-headed god, adores sweets and rides a magical mouse. One day, he bites into a super jumbo jawbreaker laddoo and breaks his tusk! Upset, Ganesha meets the wise poet Vyasa, who shows him that his broken tusk can be used to write the epic poem, the Mahabharata. This vibrant and humorous retelling teaches that what seems broken can be quite useful after all.
