Indira Parthasarathy's play in Hindustani
Presented by New Delhi Theatre Workshop

Directed by K.S. Rajendran

The play explores the theme of struggles - the mutually contradictory dispositions of the various characters: Shahjahan and Aurangzeb; Dara and Aurangzeb; Jahanara and Roshanara; and finally Aurangzeb versus Aurangzeb in a masterly analysis of the conflicts that haunt an astute politician amidst a crumbling empire
