Auto Queens

Synopsis

Mohana, the visionary president of Tamil Nadu’s first women-led auto-rickshaw union, shoulders the exhilarating and daunting task of building something that has never existed before. What begins as a dream of dignity and access soon reveals its true cost: leadership, risk, and the weight of carrying many futures at once. At her side is Leela Rani - fellow driver, confidante, and counterforce - whose fiery, unyielding spirit collides with Mohana’s quiet resolve. Together, they navigate the systemic discrimination of a deeply male-dominated profession. Despite their differing approaches to daily injustices, their bond remains an unshakeable force. In their wake, a growing network of women drivers begin to take shape, each drawn by the promise of equal opportunity. On the bustling streets of Chennai, their daily negotiations for space build into a quiet mobility revolution fuelled by grit, the enduring power of sisterhood, and collective strength.
