Mote Ram ka Satyagrah Hindi

13th April
7.00 p.m.

Asmita Theatre Group presents

The play is a comic-satire with all the elements of a musical. on the surface, the play appears to be a simple story about a brahmin from banaras. The town of banaras adorns itself to recieve a Vice Roy, as per the directions given by the Magistrate- Sir William Parkinson. Pandit Moteram Shastri, the protagonist seems to have bitten more than he can chew, and agrees to go on a hunger strike to stop the people of the town from declaring a "Hartal". Whether or not the pundit succeeds in controling his hunger brings the play to its comical climax. There is more to this play then meets the eye. It deals with larger issues of the relationship between Religion & Politics. The play wright, intriciately weave the threats of this rather sensitive subject into a cohesive and entertaining play. The issues raised are as relevent and contemprary now, as they were under the colomset's rule.

Tom Alter in & as K.L. Saigal. It is a revisit to the aura and era of the great K L Saigal. It is a ‘Faction’--- where ‘facts’ blend with ‘fiction’ to result into a musical drama of a ‘never before’ kind. The play portrays Saigal the immortal as well as Saigal the mortal — Saigal as Sita ji in Jammu, Saigal as salesman in Delhi, Saigal as struggler in Calcutta and Saigal as superstar in Bombay. In the process, it re-lives the music and cinema of yesteryears. Moreover, the story of Saigal is replete with events and anecdotes which center no less around the legends of equal stature, say, Ustad Fiyyaz Khan, D.V. Palusker, Punkaj Mullick, R.C. Boral, K.C. Dey, Ustad Abdul Karim Khan, Narain Rao Vyas and many more.
