What if, one day, you find yourself in a Himalayan cave, far away from the world? For Jeet, this is a choice he made after leaving city life behind. One evening, a strange man called Adi, who does mysterious things, makes his way into Jeet's cave. The two develop a friendship that will help Jeet unravel the secrets of the wild. In his pursuit to grow, Jeet travels to a mountain village that has been untouched by time and then up a sacred mountain, meeting some fascinating characters along his journey. On this quest from the surreal to the supernatural, Jeet untangles some of the most complex mysteries of the world, which often kept him awake at night in the city. Intriguing, adventurous and containing the pearls of forgotten ancient Indian myths and legends, Caveman's Secret Sauce has the right ingredients that are missing in society today.
