Event Description : Cineaste presents 'Bahut Bada Sawaal?' Hindi Play. 
The play is a comic satire of non decision making by constitutional/institutional bodies in our nation. It opens with a meeting session organized by local body to discuss their grievances and propose their suggestion to the concerned authorities. But, the group discusses everything under the sky ranging from hobbies, sharing cheap jokes, relationship except the agenda of the meeting! And the real issues never see the light of a critical discussion session. Though the play was written long ago, the situation still holds true for current scenario. The gravity of situation has been emoted in a funny way through daily life characters played by the performers. The play is engrossed with subtle humour which shows how the formula of majority has been mocked in the democracy, where every logic is vain as it stands alone opposing the majority
