Rangadhara- The Theatre Stream in association with SUTRADHAR Presents MAIN RAHI MASOOM

A 70-minute monologue in Hindustani on the life and times of a Hindi and Urdu writerLate Dr. Rahi Masoom Raza.

This is a part of Month-long theatre festival by Rangdhara, Sutradhar at Lamakaan over Sat & Sun weekends at 7:30pm in January.

Enacted by Vinay Varma and Directed by Prof. Bhaskar Shewalkar

This performance is first of its kind on Rahi. This poignant monologue shows how Rahi detested communal and vote-bank politics, and how he fought against the divisive forces in the country through his writings. He was a strong nationalist and a Muslim next who staunchly opposed pseudo-secularism. He was upfront against the fundamentalists on both sides of the divide. He was brutally honest regarding politics of hatred, and felt that the interest of communal elements among both Hindus and Muslims lies in keeping the two communities aloof from each other and to create distrust among them.
