Paytaan translates to a derogatory form of the word 'footwear'. The title of the film thus sets the horizon of expectation for you. Its intentions become more clear as we realize our protagonist is a little child, the son of a cobbler, who is tired of his peers teasing him as the "Emperor of Soles". <br><br> As we go deeper into his reality, we are introduced to more obstacles that he faces within the span of only a single day. From dismissal, rejection of his truth, to mockery and denial of basic respect for his family, he battles it all. <br><br> For a child who may have hardly had the chance to learn about the ways of the adult-world, all of these emotions acquire overwhelming proportions until they take the form of an irrevocable action. It is then these progression of events that come to form the body of the film, presenting itself to you to interact with.
