Ettha Haaride Hamsa

The yearnings of the pre-independence generation remain as relavant today as they wereback then. The principles that evolved over the past century are rapidly depreciatinf right before our eyes. A trend that continues at an urgent pace even in the first two and a half decades of the 21st century. Analyzing the consequences of these changes is the central theme of this theatrical experiment. Against the backdrop of a society shaped by colonial rule, the freedom movement and deeply entrenched social divisions, the play reflects the aspirations and conflicts of a generation searching for a more just and equal future. The yearnings of the pre-Independence generation remain as relevant today as they were then. The yearnings and struggles of that generation remain as relevant today as they were then. Even as the world has changed, caste, religion and class continue to be used to influence, control and manipulate people. The principles and values that evolved through generations of struggle appear to be rapidly depreciating before our eyes. Through this theatrical experiment, the play asks us to look closely at these patterns - at those who suffer because of them, those who benefit from them, and the consequences for a society that repeatedly allows its people to be divided.
