Ekaant takes you through the abandoned roads and alleys of some of India’s historic locations. Travelling through the spread out palaces and deserted forts, the show documents and investigates the eerie processes of abandonment of each site. How flourishing towns and cities came to be in ruins, is the question each episode seeks to answer.

New Delhi, the capital of India is a city inhabited since time immemorial. The Mehrauli archaeological park is a 100-acre area that has collected within its limits ruins and monuments spanning 1000 years! From a remnant of the Lal Kot - the first fortification of Delhi to the time of the British asserting their dominion, the park is spread like what can only be called, an island of Indian history.
