Event Description : THEATRE : Bigul presents Ismat Chugtai's "Gharwali" Hindi/Urdu Play. 

About the play : In India, marriage remains a crucial phase of any individual’s life, especially a woman. Women who decide to go against the norm and stay single, are looked at with suspicious raised eyebrows. Ismat Chughtai’s short story Gharwali is a heady satire on this societal norm of marriage. This story explores, intelligently, issues of sexual morality and the hypocrisy surrounding it in Indian society.

Language: Hindi, Urdu

Directed by: Soleman Ali

About the group : Formed in 2007 by a group of young college students in Delhi, Bigul has worked hard to create a name for itself in the field of theatre. In this journey of ten years, we have put forth 14 plays echoing our concerns for the society.
