Step into the extraordinary lives of India's forgotten stars – the child actors. Master and Baby unveils the captivating tales of success and struggle that define their journey from innocence to stardom. Sharad Goyekar, catapulted from rural Shirur to national fame, faced the dark abyss of addiction. Daisy Irani, the 60s child sensation, bravely shared her haunting past.

Some embraced stardom willingly; others were thrust into it by ambitious parents. As we dive into their stories, we question the very essence of being a child actor.

Master and Baby is a pioneering chronicle, combining riveting accounts with insightful analysis, shedding light on a neglected facet of Bollywood's legacy.
