A biopic on the life and legacy of Swami Chinmayananda, the revered spiritual leader and founder of the Chinmaya Mission.
Swami Chinmayananda is revered as one of the foremost exponents of Vedanta, the philosophical core of Hinduism. His journey was anything but conventional—beginning as a spirited and mischievous child, transforming into a rebellious youth, a revolutionary freedom fighter, a sharp-witted journalist, and even a staunch atheist. How did Balakrishna Menon, a passionate and outspoken skeptic, evolve into the enlightened master Swami Chinmayananda?
The first-ever biopic on his life, On A Quest, directed by R.S. Prasanna, answers these questions. It provides an intimate glimpse into the making of a spiritual giant—one who not only inspired millions during his lifetime but continues to do so even decades after his passing.
