Here's the synopsis for the film
Hanuman the monkey king is now a three-wheeled robot with a need for speed and adventure. Instead of a monkey's tail, he has been gifted with a magic chain with which to subdue his mortal enemy Tosakan. Meanwhile, Tosakan is now a ten-headed and ten-armed giant robot. His only goal in life is to conquer the robotic world and destroy Lord Rama, the powerful demigod of Ramayana who is now a powerful satellite in orbit around this robotic world. Through a series of comedic mishaps, Tosakan and Hanuman wake up and find that they're fused together by Hanuman's chain. To make things worse, they have lost their memories and have no clue as to why they are chained together. In searching for a way to break the chain, they soon become friends, but what happens when they find out the truth about themselves?
