Tigdam adapted from “The Three Children of Fortune” by Brothers Grimm is presented in nautanki style. It is a tale of three sons in search of their fortune, with the help of three gifts given to them by their unfortunate fathers. The three gifts are as unusual as a rooster, a sickle and a cat. The story travels to three different villages and follows the three sons and their hopes. The narrative revolves around how superstition kills the rising hopes of these men.
