Remember opening your first History book back in school?
Seeing the big spread of the Indus valley Civilisation on the first page?
Unearth aims to get back that blissful moment. It tells the story of the capital of Citadel in the Harappan Civilisation. Taking a metaphorical approach to the three major stages and invasions, the idea of nostalgia, play and toys have been used to get the feeling of joy. It aims to take the viewers on a journey to re-discover the story of the civilisation while taking cues from the Dholavira site.

Nonetheless, the civilisation is still known for its toys and architectural marvels and strikes a chord with everyone
