Taj Mahal Ka Tender
Written by: ayaj shukla
Directed by: Ali Ahmed
Date: 10th May 2025
Time: 8:00 PM
Venue: Lamakaan, Hyderabad
Synopsis:
Imagine if the construction of the magnificent Taj Mahal had to navigate the modern-day bureaucratic hurdles — from tender processes, corruption, red tape to political meddling! Taj Mahal Ka Tender is a sharp, witty satire that humorously explores what would happen if Shah Jahan had to build the Taj Mahal today. The play captures the absurdity of government offices, the delays, the contractors’ greed, and the complete system failure — all while maintaining a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud narrative.
A hilarious commentary on governance and inefficiency, the play makes you laugh, think, and perhaps shed a tear at the cost of lost dreams and grandeur in today's world.
