Plot
[edit]Door Ka Raahi is the story of a person named "Prashant" who is on an unending journey for the wellness of society. Door Ka Raahi is also all about Kishore Kumar's philosophy of life. It depicts with brilliance Kishore Kumar's inner self and the way he construed life in all its ups and downs. The movie is a metaphor that depicts the endless eternal journey of the human soul that is unaware of its destiny and has to continue with its journey in the quest of the eternal unknown. Kishore-da's all-time favourite "Panthi hoon main us path ka aanth nahi jiska" and "Chalti chali jaaye zindagi" are the manifestation of his eternal quest. His exuberance and flamboyance were the veil for this inwardly lonely person. His loneliness and brilliance found expression in Door Ka Raahi and Door Vadiyon Mein Kahin.
