T for THEATRE presents KAALI GHADI and SHOONYA BATTA SANNATTA- Wed 28th May Akshara Theatre

Kaali Ghadi

What does a bottle of pepsi mean to you? What does friendship mean to you? Vaibhav and Sukhdev are two friends straight out of the fields of rural India (Literally). They laugh, they gossip, they share a bottle of cold drink but what is so special that everybody talks about them and what changes one day that they no longer remain friends, they just grow up and grow apart. A tale of the dark times that we are living in, honour which is not so honourable, valour which is fast vanishing and friendship which is as fickle as the English weather. Kaali Ghadi is a take on desire, morality, society and Darwinism.

Shoonya Batta Sannatta 

This play is about Rahul Dravid, but wait then it should have been named Sau batta Sainkda, actually this play is about what happens when you are in the middle, just like Rahul Dravid used to be in the middle of the pitch for such long hours of test matches. However while Dravid was busy scoring century after century there were so many other people who were busy following their daily routines, be it bunking school, doing household chores or finding great meaning in a meaningless dialogue, seeking divine pleasure in an unnecessary argument and finding contentment in deferring a decision indefinitely. Whoever said that the journey is more important than the destination was coming out after watching a show of Shoonya Batta Sannatta. Human life is long but the life of a spark plug of an auto rickshaw is very short.
Do catch the wonderful twin delights at AKSHARA THEATRE on 28th of May at 7.30 PM
