"The boy Krishna is abandoned by his mother at the Apollo Circus and she tells him that he can only return home when he can afford 500 rupees to pay for the bicycle of his brother that he had trashed.

Krishna is called Chaipau by the street children of Bombay and he works delivering and selling tea for Chacha, who owns a street bar.
