Children are children, irrespective of their setting. They need love and care, food, clothing and shelter, but above all, directions to lead a good and useful life. But all the children are not so lucky. Many of them get to eat only once a day, lack proper clothes and some of them do not have any one to care for them. When survival itself becomes the goal in life, education becomes a distant dream and the path to crime is easiest to follow. Children living in harsh circumstances suffer for no fault of theirs and need all the help they can from the more fortunate. Diya endeavors to light a match in the dark world of slum children.
