Padma Bhushan Pandit Sadashiv Buwa Shrotri, a celebrated Hindustani classical vocalist, broods about the future, his own and that of his esoteric art. As he ages, questions of legacy and continuity weigh heavily on his mind, especially in a world where classical traditions are increasingly pushed to the margins. His wife’s nephew, Kartik, drawn irresistibly to the ragas, defies his father’s ban on music.
And one evening he disappears mysteriously. The event shakes both families to the core, dragging past wounds and unspoken tensions back into the light. The estranged families are thrown together again, and troubling secrets emerge – patriarchal control, violence, jealousy and a headstrong obstinacy that had once silenced another musical career. Old grudges resurface as the battle between tradition and personal freedom plays out with renewed intensity.
Will Kartik return? Can his mother and aunt heal their deep-rooted rifts? And will Buwa’s legacy ensure the survival of his art beyond his own lifetime? The Music Makers delves into the passions, frustrations and sacrifices that both bind and tear apart those possessed by the eternal lure of music, weaving a rich narrative of devotion, rebellion, and redemption.
