SYNOPSIS:
A momentary act of revenge transformed the lives of two young Indian women forever. After surviving an acid attack while carrying the scars of human brutality on their face, both Ritu and Faraha now have to navigate a sea of odd currents daily.
Strangely enough, Ritu’s scars also brought her fame. She occasionally finds herself talking on television, modelling at fashion events, or even featuring in a Bollywood film. Still, she often feels lonely. She wants to be loved and embraces
an ambiguous relationship with a fellow female acid attack survivor.
Faraha, on the other hand, has come to terms with her post-attack singlehood and her new lease of
life. As she begins to enjoy freedom and independence, a desire to become a mother slowly brews inside her.

By intertwining the shadows and lights, hope and hopelessness in Ritu and Faraha’s life, Ayena becomes a mirror where we can also see our own reflections.

Rumi Hai’, an hour-long mehfil dedicated to the life and works of Persian poet Rumi.
Through this mehfil, We wish to bring to light these underappreciated gems of Rumi which have gotten lost in the fame of his more famous works. The program is an hour-long biographical glimpse through "Naqqali" into the life of Rumi, his inspiration for writing, and his signature philosophy on life’s many conundrums. The program will be helmed by a 'Naqqal’ telling his life story through his own original ghazals, recited in both, the Persian language that it was originally written in, followed by a Hindi-Urdu translation as well.

The show is created and performed by Ashwin Chitale, who discovered the beauty of Farsi through its incomparable literature. Ashwin has been learning the Persian language for over four years now. To develop his language skills beyond the scope of his language course, he started studying Persian literature and discovered a deep love for Farsi poetry and storytelling. He also holds a Master's degree in philosophy, which helped him gain a deeper understanding of Persian philosophy and the way of life as depicted through its literature.
Ashwin won the National Award for Best Child Artist for his debut Marathi film “Shwas” in 2004. Having a background in Performing arts and the Persian language inspired him to create a performance that showcases the beauty of this language through the poetry and philosophy of Maulana Rumi, who is regarded as one of the most iconic Farsi writers of all time.

Hello everyone, as we know, it's been 76 years since independence, but our Vision for our country, inscribed in our constitution, is still a distant dream. Our preamble emphasizes social justice, economic justice, and political justice, and due to the changing circumstances, it became a mandate to practice environmental justice to protect our earth. Therefore, we believe that upholding these four justice principles is crucial for becoming a progressive nation. Understanding this Vision, we - a group of responsible citizens, have started the "Justice Movement of India." It is a long-term movement aimed at bringing citizens, activists, experts, NGOs, Civil society organizations, and intellectuals together for the sake of our Nation's progress. We are organizing " A Presentation" on 24th December from 4 pm to 6:30 pm, and we request you to attend to discuss and define the "Change" we want in India.

This play revolves around the funny family members with Hyderabadi dialect and how they keep themselves busy with crazy and mad things. The protagonist Khala (elderly aunt in Urdu) is an ill-tempered but sensitive woman who is feared by everyone. It will take you on the laughter ride through the funny Nok-Jhok between the husband, wife and a servant. Beauty of the play is revealed at the last. The play maintains a fine balance between a character comedy and slapstick. Without leaning too much on either of them, the play manages to tickle the funny bones of the audience and in the process, slips in a social message as well.

“the glass of martyrdom”

Multiple shows performed successfully in Mumbai, Bangalore, Mysore and Dharwad.

A theatrical adaptation of Saadat Hasan Manto’s story Shaheed – Saaz is a sharp satirical look at the post partition era when people were swayed with the idea of sacrifice and martyrdom even as they struggled to adapt to a new national identity. The immense loss of life and property resulted in poor migrants living at the mercy of charity. And yet few shrewd businessmen profited from this, painting their profiteering with the colors of supreme sacrifice and martyrdom. Set in 1948 the story is about the journey of one such Punjabi migrant from Kathiawad, Gujarat in India to Lahore in Pakistan. Belonging to the class of ‘Baniyas’ the man, who had a successful business of cocaine in Kathiawad, Gujarat, travels to Pakistan in search of setting up a new big business in his newly formed homeland. Working hard to build his empire and multiply his wealth, he is suddenly struck by a misplaced angst that he had neglected doing any charitable work since his arrival here. He starts searching for that one charitable act which will earn him his place in heaven. But nothing seems worthy of his benevolence as he travels through the length and breadth of the city and shares his experiences after interacting with people of all types and classes.

Secular and Traditional Hindustani Music and Poetry by Prof Subendu Ghosh

Prof. Subendu Ghosh takes us on a musical journey through India’s secular traditions of Amir Khusro, Kabir, Tansen, Bulle Shah, Lalan Faqeer, Nazeer Akbarabadi, Tagore, Faiz, Ramprasad Bismil and others. Composed and sung by Subendu, this is a performance of sheer breadth of traditions covered in an evening.

This is a presentation to remind ourselves as we pass through a difficult period of communal tensions and violence, about India’s secular commitment. The people of India have lived in peace and harmony over the ages. Despite differences in religions, they have all contributed to build a very rich and composite culture, and this is beautifully reflected in our literature and music. This programme is a musical journey through India’s traditions of secular poetry, in a historical order beginning from the 13th century to the present day. Most of the music is composed and sung by Dr. Subhendu Ghosh and is based on Hindustani ragas or other musical forms including the traditional folk songs. The narrative includes a number of historical personalities like Hazrat Amir Khusro, Kabir, Mian Taan Sen, Bulle Shah, Lalan Faqir, Nazeer Akbarabadi, Ramprasad Bismil, Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Rabindranath Tagore. This is a small effort to highlight the poetic genius of our Indian poets and pay our tribute to those who dedicated their lives to a Secular India.

JAAM-E-SHAHADAT
“the glass of martyrdom”

Multiple shows performed successfully in Mumbai, Bangalore, Mysore and Dharwad.

A theatrical adaptation of Saadat Hasan Manto’s story Shaheed – Saaz is a sharp satirical look at the post partition era when people were swayed with the idea of sacrifice and martyrdom even as they struggled to adapt to a new national identity. The immense loss of life and property resulted in poor migrants living at the mercy of charity. And yet few shrewd businessmen profited from this, painting their profiteering with the colors of supreme sacrifice and martyrdom. Set in 1948 the story is about the journey of one such Punjabi migrant from Kathiawad, Gujarat in India to Lahore in Pakistan. Belonging to the class of ‘Baniyas’ the man, who had a successful business of cocaine in Kathiawad, Gujarat, travels to Pakistan in search of setting up a new big business in his newly formed homeland. Working hard to build his empire and multiply his wealth, he is suddenly struck by a misplaced angst that he had neglected doing any charitable work since his arrival here. He starts searching for that one charitable act which will earn him his place in heaven. But nothing seems worthy of his benevolence as he travels through the length and breadth of the city and shares his experiences after interacting with people of all types and classes.

Secular and Traditional Hindustani Music and Poetry by Prof Subendu Ghosh

Prof. Subendu Ghosh takes us on a musical journey through India’s secular traditions of Amir Khusro, Kabir, Tansen, Bulle Shah, Lalan Faqeer, Nazeer Akbarabadi, Tagore, Faiz, Ramprasad Bismil and others. Composed and sung by Subendu, this is a performance of sheer breadth of traditions covered in an evening.

This is a presentation to remind ourselves as we pass through a difficult period of communal tensions and violence, about India’s secular commitment. The people of India have lived in peace and harmony over the ages. Despite differences in religions, they have all contributed to build a very rich and composite culture, and this is beautifully reflected in our literature and music. This programme is a musical journey through India’s traditions of secular poetry, in a historical order beginning from the 13th century to the present day. Most of the music is composed and sung by Dr. Subhendu Ghosh and is based on Hindustani ragas or other musical forms including the traditional folk songs. The narrative includes a number of historical personalities like Hazrat Amir Khusro, Kabir, Mian Taan Sen, Bulle Shah, Lalan Faqir, Nazeer Akbarabadi, Ramprasad Bismil, Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Rabindranath Tagore. This is a small effort to highlight the poetic genius of our Indian poets and pay our tribute to those who dedicated their lives to a Secular India.

"PUTUKKU ZARA ZARA DUBUKKU MEY"
Putukku Zara Zara Dubukku Mey is a hilarious comedy that revolves around Janaki (who borrows every little thing from the neighbourhood) and her husband Prasadam, a simple middle-class guy vexed with Janaki. As Janaki decides to attend a function, the couple encounter a turn of events and get into trouble after borrowing a necklace from the house owner Ramanatham. What happens to the couple when Kaasipathi and Venkubabu interfere in this mess? Is Prasadam’s frustration with everyone around him ever going to end? Let`s watch the play and find out.

KUNDETI KOMMU
Kundeti Kommu revolves around a conflict between two villages Pedduru and Chinnuru which were once one. Owing to differences, two brothers Pedda Dora and Chinna Dora separate, which not only creates the division of this village but also plants seeds of vengeance in the hearts of these people. While a wanderer conversing with an educated urbanite, suddenly collapses exactly on the boundary line of the two villages. This triggers a conflict between the two villages on who shall take up the responsibility to perform the last rites of the dead person.
