Set in 2015, DAMaN portrays the challenges healthcare workers face in combating both deadly malaria and deeply rooted superstitions in tribal communities. The film intertwines the struggles and triumphs of Dr. Siddharth, who leaves behind his urban life after being posted in the cut-off, naxal-dominated regions of Odisha's Malkangiri district. Kaushik Das, Founder and CEO of AAO NXT, shared his enthusiasm, saying, “We are deeply committed to promoting films that not only entertain but also inspire and provoke thought. DAMaN is a masterpiece that resonates with audiences for its portrayal of human grit and determination. We are immensely proud to stream this National Award-winning film, and we believe its story will touch the hearts of millions across India and beyond.” A Tale of Bravery and Social Reform Based on true events, DAMaN sheds light on the government’s efforts to control malaria in Odisha’s most inaccessible tribal regions. The film is a tribute to the selflessness of healthcare workers who face unimaginable hurdles while serving in areas lacking basic medical infrastructure. The protagonist, Dr. Siddharth, is stationed at the Janbai Primary Health Center, covering 151 villages in a naxalite-infested region. With little to no modern medical facilities available, he embarks on a mission to eradicate malaria, often using his own limited resources. Award-Winning Accolades and Box Office Success Since its theatrical release on November 4, 2022, DAMaN has received widespread critical acclaim and went on to become the highest-grossing Odia film of all time.
