Concept: The film opens in a black and white world where a kid is shown touching an object in his house which transforms into its real vibrant colours. His mother is concerned that if anybody sees him doing this, they will get angry with him, so she tries to protect him by telling him not to do so. Later when he steps out, he again tries to use his power and then goes on a spree and touches all possible surfaces that transforms the dull and lifeless to colourful, vibrant and full of joy. The mother then realises the positive effect that her son has brought towards making the world a beautiful place!
