India loses nearly 1,200 temple idols every year, many of which eventually find their way into museums, private collections and auction houses across the world.

In this exclusive conversation with India Today's Sana Farzeen, filmmakers Ashutosh Gowariker and Raghav Khanna talk about their upcoming docu-drama Temple Raiders, the years of research behind it, the shocking reality of idol theft, and why these crimes are not just about stolen artefacts but stolen history, culture and faith.
