Kharaashein
Hindustani Play
Designed and Directed by Salim Arif
Produced by Essay Communicaion
Written by Gulzar
Based on communal riots in the country at various times and various parts, this is a collage of 4 short stories and nazms penned by Gulzar. Featuring the likes of Yashpal Sharma, Atul Kulkarni, Anoop Soni, Lubna Salim, Kishore Kadam, Ganesh Yadav the stories like Hilsa, Raavi Paar, Khauff, Khuda Hafiz raise goosebumps to say the least.
The very opening of the play with an voice over of Gulzar flags off the play like hitting a sixer on ball one and it continues to be an engrossing, enlightening, intriguing and entertaining (for those who don't necessarily eqaute entertainment with laughter and humour with comedy). Also note the minimalistic set design!
