Ajanta Ki Taraf @ Studio Safdar, 6:00 PM 1st March, 2015


  • About the Play:

'Ajanta Ki Taraf' is an elegant collage of three stories by Khwaja Ahmad Abbas, the doyen of progressive literature in Urdu. The key ideas of the three stories - 'Ajanta Ki Taraf', 'Zafraan Ke Phool' and 'Meri Maut' - merge together to profile a journey from brutality to beauty which India undertakes in her spiritual quest. A couple, tormented by the communal violence as the aftermath of the Partition, takes refuge in the aesthetic solace of the Ajanta caves but only to be exposed to a destablising dilemma - what's eternal, coarseness of cruelty or purity of passion ?

 Venue and time:
