NISHUMBITA WOULD LIKE TO BRING FORTH THE "KADHWA SACH" & THE AGONY OF "INDIA - PAKISTAN - PARTITION" THROUGH... KHADER KHAN’S- ESHWAR ALLAH TERO NAAM.

As the title suggests, the present play is based on communal harmony. India has many epithets, like land of regions, land of many languages, etc., but the beauty of this land is marred by an unwashable black mark on its character, the virus of communal hatred. This worm has eaten into the Indian social fabric and has taken such deep roots that there is an imminent danger of a collapse in the system. The present play set in the pre -independence setting looks at the impregnable pain and deep scars of partition. Set in a lunatic asylum, the play looks at the society from the eyes of four lunatics, a Hindu, a Muslim, a rebellious young man and a displaced king. The reasons for their condition and their accusations against the society and systems of oppressions form the central plot of the play. Though the play is set in the times of partition, the message applies to the present day, like for example the statement of the Rebellious young man .We are not lunatics, the people outside are, that is a society of killers, a society of marauders, a society of murderers. In the light of EVERYDAY happenings of communal hatred, how true are these words! Pause for a while and think...
