Last evening was extraordinary... went for a play called 'Sammy' by Lilette Dubey at Chowdiah Hall ... a part of the Bangalore Habba....
Play was outstanding... based on Gandhi but not the regular historical ones...it had an element of laughter wonderfully woven... showed a different shade of his character... we could actually relate to this Gandhi, who finally seemed not just 'Mahatma' (the great Soul) but also a normal human like all of us.. who had weaknesses and strengths, uncertainities and difficulties, failures and disappointments... who fought with wife at home yet was concerned about her...
The beautifully directed play had an awesome cast with a special mention of Joy Sengupta and Neha Dubey -as Gandhi and Kasturba... actually everybody gave an overwhelming performance...
Did any of you in B'lore go for the play?
