A reimagination of legendary playwright Vijay Tendulkar’s controversy-riddled play ‘Sakharam Binder’, this brilliant spin-off satire by P.L. Deshpande comes alive on stage under the deft direction of Mangesh Satpute.
In response to the moral and societal debates sparked by Vijay Tendulkar's play ‘Sakharam Binder’, P.L. Deshpande had famously crafted a satirical counter-response that critiqued the backlash against open-minded narratives. Through his humorous take, Deshpande turned the serious themes of Tendulkar’s original into a comedy that pokes fun at the absurdity of moral policing and societal hypocrisy.
Brilliantly adapted on stage by Mangesh Satpute, this production reimagines Sakharam and his companions through a talented cast featuring Sunil Jadhav, Vishal More, and Alka Parab. The performance combines sharp dialogue, silent comedy, and exaggerated characters to create a humorous, family-friendly atmosphere, while encouraging reflection on social issues.
The play delivers laughter and wit, ultimately serving as a comedic yet insightful response to rigid moral expectations.
