Watch Manasi Joshi embody the spirit of Anandibai Joshi—India’s first female physician—in a stirring solo performance that traces one woman’s fight for education, identity, and lasting change.
At a time when Indian women were expected to remain within the walls of their homes, Anandibai Joshi dared to dream beyond them. Set in the late 19th century, this powerful solo performance tells the story of India’s first female MD physician—a young woman who set sail to America in 1886 to study medicine, defying societal norms with quiet determination.
Written by Gita Manek, directed by Manoj Shah, and performed by Manasi Joshi, Anandibai is a tribute to a woman who redefined what it meant to be seen, heard, and remembered. With heart, grit, and unwavering purpose, she carved out a place in history and lit the path for generations to come.
