Kanyadaan

This multiple award-winning play, by one of India’s best known playwrights, VIJAY TENDULKAR, is one of his most powerful human dramas.

This revival, which has completed over 50 shows across India and abroad, to much acclaim, brings the story of a daughter’s transformation into a wife and a mother. A young woman from a politically active family that regards itself as progressive and liberal, decides to marry a socially inferior, but talented man. Tendulkar explores the texture of modernity and social change in India, through the forces this marriage unleashes.
