Event Details : Sansaptak (A group for theatre) presents Torit Mitra’s 'Vasani Jirnani' Bengali Play.
20 years have passed since the onslaught of the declaration of Emergency in 1975, one of the most controversial periods in the Indian history. After a lot of effort, Swati and Arunangshu Banerjee are, finally, leading a normal life. He has just been selected as a jury member in the Commission formed to provide justice to the former political prisoners who had suffered the atrocities during the Emergency period, including his wife, who was gang raped for 29 days during her captivity, the act led by a sadistic doctor whom she never saw. In a dramatic turn of events, Arunangshu is helped by a stranger, Narendra Bhargav, when he was coming back from a meeting with the Prime Minister. Narendra drops in at Arunangshu’s house again to congratulate him after his name was broadcast in the news. Meanwhile, Swati recognizes the stranger’s voice and mannerisms as that of the doctor and decides to bring forth the Judgment Day, by any means possible. The events that unfurl shatter the finely webbed socio-political ideologies of the couple. Will she succeed in her desperate act of nihilism?
