I am looking for a movie that I saw in a theater (maybe) in 2005, about a boy in India who desired to find his spiritual teacher so much that he left home on foot in search. As he walked around India for many years searching and meditating in the forest, he befriended wild animals.

It's a documentary, but maybe Mystic India (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0400675/plotsummary).
