FITRATI CHOR

Written by Vijaydan Detha

In a world built on promises and constructed by hypocrites, liars and cheaters, a natural born thief must pay the price for his truth, honesty and integrity.

His writings have seen numerous screen and stage adaptations including Habib Tanvir's Charandas Chor, Prakash Jha's Parinati, Amol Palekar's Paheli, and Mani Kaul’s Duvidha.

BASAUDE KI MARIYAM

Written by Asad Mohammad Khan

Beyond beliefs and boundaries, religion and rituals, scriptures and statutes stands God's Nation; where love is the sole dogma and denomination.


Asad Mohammad Khan (born 1931) is an Urdu short story writer & poet, and a winner of the ‘Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi Noor-o-Nazm’ and ‘Majlis-e-Farogh Urdu Adab’ Awards. He has written several television plays and published five collections of short stories to date.

Hindustani literature has been the muse of many artists over the last century. As a collective of professional stage and screen actors, we have found ourselves drawn to its beauty and rootedness, its enduring ability to entertain and enrich our minds. Through performances of short stories, we take the spirit of Hindustani literature to audiences in different contexts and venues. Our craft is storytelling — the oldest form of theater, practiced since the dawn of civilization. The introspective and interactive nature of our shows results in the creation of a space for dialogue — empowering the audience to become storytellers.
