Moteram Ka Satyagrah
A comical satire Set in the pre-Independence Banaras, where the Viceroy of India is supposed to come, the magistrate is at a loss as to how to make the city clean for the visit. At the same time, the people of Banaras are calling for a strike in protest of the viceroy's arrival. The magistrate gets hold of the priest Moteram who decides to go on hunger-strike to stop the city's people from going ahead with the strike. This has been translated from the famous original Hindi story called "Satyagrah" written by Munshi Premchand. He is one of the most celebrated writers of the Indian subcontinent, and is regarded as one of the foremost Hindustani writers of the early twentieth century.

Parsai
Parsai is set in a sharply absurd, darkly comic world inspired by the biting satire of Harishankar Parsai, a world where logic bends before bureaucracy, truth depends on paperwork, and humanity struggles beneath the weight of systems it created itself.

Confessions from Mental Asylum
Confessions from a Mental Asylum follows the raw, unsettling, and darkly humorous journey of Maverick, a man whose only crime is refusing to live a life shaped by monotony and social conditioning. An absurdist soul with an instinctive intolerance for pretense, Maverick navigates the world with a brutal, unfiltered honesty that society cannot or will not tolerate. His refusal to conform becomes the very reason he is branded “unstable” and confined to a mental asylum (There are other reasons too that will be revealed in the play).
Inside the asylum’s walls, Maverick encounters a world that is ironically far more absurd than he is. Through fragmented memories, surreal conversations, and sharply honest monologues, he unravels the thin line between sanity and insanity. The institution meant“fix” him becomes a mirror reflecting society’s fear of truth, individuality, and unpredictability.
The play blends absurdism, introspection, and dark wit, immersing the audience in Maverick’s confessions, sometimes chaotic, sometimes painfully clear. Confessions from a Mental Asylum challenges the audience to question the conventional sought of expression in communication to society and ourselves, should they be re-evaluated or their existence is a Burden.

12 Angry Men
12 Angry Men is a Hindi adaptation of Reginald Rose's acclaimed 1954 teleplay. Set in India, the story unfolds inside a jury room where twelve citizens must determine the fate of a 19-year-old boy from a slum, accused of murdering his father.
What appears to be an open-and-shut case is challenged by a single juror who refuses to rush to judgment. As he questions the evidence, the other eleven jurors are compelled to confront their own assumptions, biases, and beliefs.
A gripping exploration of justice, prejudice, and human nature, 12 Angry Men holds a mirror to society, revealing the many shades of humanity that exist within us all. Timeless, thought-provoking, and deeply relevant, the play remains as powerful today as ever.
