Simple Superstar

Make the common extraordinary

'Simple Superstar' is the story of India's first Youtube star- Wilbur Sargunaraj, an ordinary man from rural India. Wilbur dreams of succeeding as a famous musician, but day-to-day life in India is full of barriers and expectations that force him to debate giving up on his talents. An encounter with some new friends encourages Wilbur to take a chance on his own dreams. Armed with his own special musical genre, his unashamed love for dancing and different cultures, Wilbur travels with his friends through rural India. The journey is filled with joy and humour, dance and great multicolour sounds of 'Indo World Fusion'. Through heartbreak and joy, Wilbur discovers what success really is and shows that upper class and lower class aren't important, but everyone can be First Class! He and his friends find beauty in seemingly unlikely places on this journey that will change their lives forever. Witness the creative genius of this 'champion for the common person,' as he takes on bullies in the street, offers advice to young couples, and sings about the mouth-watering 'Chicken 65!' Through all the twists and turns, Wilbur delivers a sharp reading of India's diverse class and caste structures. Part autobiography, part road trip, and part instructional video, this wacky musical will have you laughing and cheering for the simple man from Southern India.
