Sing Geetham Turns Music, Greed and Conservation Into Fantasy
Sing Geetham is a funny fantasy movie about a village and a gold mine.

Renu has the village’s last tree pulled down.
After that, a curse makes everyone sing instead of talking.
The villagers must work out how to stop the curse.
Their problem makes them reveal what they really think.
