Plot

The show broadly covers the life and teachings of Sai Baba of Shirdi, a 19th-century healer and spiritual leader who resides in the village of Shirdi in modern-day Maharashtra. Through his numerous acts of kindness, honesty, compassion, and nonviolence, he helps the people of Shirdi overcome their struggles by emphasizing values such as righteousness, humility, forgiveness, faith, and patience.

The show gently tackles various sociopolitical issues of the time while Sai Baba reforms egotistic individuals who initially hate him and his teachings. He shows them the path of Dharma and restores their faith in God.
