Synopsis: Would you rather have the body of a tiger and the head of a boy, or the body of a boy and the head of a tiger?(Arun wants to know)When Arun, a twelve-year-old mischief maker hiding in the mountains, finds out about the plot to capture the crazy King Lalu, he vows to stop the vicious Vin and his thugs - by joining them. Armed only with a pea-shooter, Arun journeys through treacherous terrain, eerie forests, rushing rivers and even the sewers of Asamana with the help of the quick-tempered Krishma and scrappy Sai. Whether it's outsmarting the brutes, stealing a grouchy giant's keys, or trotting down a narrow mountain ledge on a one-eyed pony, Arun is ready to brave it all to save the king. Brimming with humour and adventure, this is not just one boy's gritty tale of friendship, family and mayhem- it's a downright royal rumpus!
