In the 1890s, Mowgli (Jamie Williams) is happily growing up in the jungle under the protection of Baloo the bear. Mowgli's carefree existence is threatened when he is seen by American circus scout Harrison (Bill Campbell). Eager to get his hands on Mowgli for a sideshow, Harrison seeks help from Mowgli's uncle, Buldeo (Gulshan Grover), who wants the young boy gone in order to pocket the inheritance his late brother left him. With Baloo's help, Mowgli races to evade his pursuers.
