A timeless story for children and for grown-ups who love listening too.

In a bustling city by the sea, where horns blared and towers touched the clouds, a little black-and-yellow auto rickshaw had a dream: to see the sea for the very first time. Through pouring rain, flooded streets, and busy crossings, the determined auto sets out on a journey that’s equal parts bumpy and beautiful. One that teaches it about kindness, courage, and finding wonder just around the corner.

Along the way, it helps a family reach their train on time, passes a protest to save the city’s trees, and finally rolls down a winding lane to where land ends and ocean begins. There, as sunlight glints off the waves, the little auto discovers that sometimes, dreams really do have wheels.

This episode is perfect for bedtime, quiet time, or long car rides. If you’re looking for gentle Indian stories for children, heartwarming tales about friendship and perseverance, or meaningful stories set in Indian cities, this one’s for you.
