The extraordinary rise of a boy from Mumbai's slums to the fairways of success.

In the crowded slums of Mumbai, a boy named Raja-"King" in Sanskrit-grew up with aspirations far greater than his surroundings. Orphaned at twelve, he shouldered the responsibilities of his family while working odd jobs to survive. Yet his heart remained on the lush golf courses where he labored as a caddy, quietly nurturing a dream that seemed impossible.

From carrying golf bags for minimum wages to confronting prejudice in elite clubs, Raja's journey was marked by hardship and resilience. Through late nights of study, countless failed attempts, and unwavering determination, he pursued certification from the National Golf Academy of India. After years of setbacks, he triumphed-emerging as a professional coach and breaking through the barriers of class, language, and privilege.

Raja tells the extraordinary true story of Rajesh "Raja" Mene. It is a powerful testament to perseverance, the strength of family, and the transformative role of sport in bridging divides. This is not simply the tale of a golfer-it is the story of a man who redefined what it means to be a king.
