About the play
Mahakavi (Poet Laureate) Kalidas has just finished writing the 8th 'sarg' (chapter or canto) of his epic poem 'Kumarsambhav'. A firestorm of controversy ensues and puts Kalidas on a collision course with the self-appointed 'protectors of faith'. Are they entitled to make decisions of propriety for the rest of society?
Set in the Gupta Empire, Aathvaa Sarg is a story of artistic freedom versus censorship. The debate is remarkably similar to contemporary controversies sparked by cartoons, paintings or "satanic" verses. Come and witness an epic conflict between the virtuous silent majority and the self-righteous vocal minority.
