BOOT POLISH - tells a human story of two children who earned their living by polishing shoes in the streets of Bombay.

BHOLA, an innocent boy of ten and his younger sister BELU aged seven were two destitute children belonging to a slum area in Bombay. They were well trained in the art of begging by a woman of dubious morals KAMLA CHACHI a distant relative who had provided the kids with sleeping space in her delapidated shack. The constant abuses,bickerings and beatings from Kamla Chachi had made the lives of these kids a veritable hell.

Their only ray of hope was the neighbor, JOHN an old eccentric boot legger with a sharp tongue but a golden heart. John's simple words ""Starve, die, but don't beg. Do something with your two hands"" - inspired the kids to stop begging and start the work of polishing boots.

Bhola had observed Chitku a bootblack from the slums earn money in a dignified way by shining shoes. The idea of shining shoes fascinated him so much he resolved to become a bootblack.

But the arrest of John took from their lives the little love and solace they had. They were left crying and helpless with no one to go to with their troubles. They were turned out of the house for the day by a furious Kamla for not begging and polishing boots instead.
