Ambedkar aur Gandhi.


On 6th of February I got the esteemed chance of watching a very well known play "Ambedkar Aur Gandhi".
By the theater group Asmita directed by Arvind Gaur and written by Rajesh Kumar.

Play started with a monologue from Ambedkar where he showcased his pain for untouchables and his disgust for the hindu religion,and thus sets the tone for this extra ordinary debate within two great individuals.

Ambedkar's fiery passion and pain is pitted against Gandhi's liberal and moderate ways.

Acting was avant garde. Dialogues when delivered through Ambedkar's mouth gave a tantilizing effect.

All in all a great watch and thought provoking as well.
