- Though Muraliwala begins with young Krishna playing flute to a herd of cows, his many pranks take a back seat to questions about an older, married devotee named Radha who neglects her duties responding to Krishna. The key moment in this philosophical debate over the nature of her love for Krishna, occurs when he commands her gaze and says, "You will attain me when you know me to be Omnipresent. Unless you learn to realize me in your husband Raman, you will not attain eternal happiness." Radha's husband and mother-in-law are also involved in the discussion, though Raman finds it difficult to control his doubts and jealousy concerning Radha's love for her playful tormentor. This classic tale resolves when Radha sees Raman and Krishna as one, and Raman receives Krishna's divine nature. Krishna goes to Kaliya's palace in the poisoned lake and conquers the serpent-king, to return on Kaliya's hood playing his flute again. Kaliya appears in both his forms, and Krishna is portrayed holding the four sacraments with his four arms. Raman lies down in submission before Krishna, and all is as it should be. Unlike other films based on the Bhagavata Purana, this film about Krishna's childhood comes from the Gita Govinda and Vaishnavite traditions, where the character Radha is important to the narrative.
