Overview
India is known for its remarkable architecture and serene landscapes. Its rich history is steeped in mystery; its vastness - lends itself to several stories and urban legends. Ekaant takes you through the abandoned roads and alleys of some of India’s historic locations. Travelling through the spread out palaces and deserted forts, the show documents and investigates the eerie processes of abandonment of each site. How flourishing towns and cities came to be in ruins, is the question each episode seeks to answer. Ekaant explores the ceasing of life and the triumph of nature even in the most populated of places and takes you on the road no longer travelled.

Overview
Too often, Ekaant (isolation) is associated with ruins. And a place in ruins is heartbreaking, but if anything could be worse, it is a place which still breathes, but no one cares. The Ekaant of ignorance and exclusion. The ousting from memory of a place that was once considered the paanchva dhaam and an unmissable pitstop in the pilgrimage circuit of Uttarakhand. What happened? Human error, vagaries of time or a divine rebuke?
