As a young boy growing up by the sea, C. V. Raman was full of questions.

  • Why did a sitar sing in different notes?
  • How did rainbows appear?
    And most of all—why was the sea blue?

While others accepted simple answers, Raman did not. His curiosity carried him across oceans
and led to a breakthrough that would change how we understand light.

Follow the inspiring true story of a scientist who dared to question, refused to settle and discovered the hidden colours of our world.
