Bahumukhi December 23, 2007

Kannada, 90 mins
PlayWright: Vivek Shanbhag Dir: S Surendranath

Bahumukhi is a play set in the present times. The play unveils in multiple layers as the world that unfolds before a journalist who goes looking for a sensational story. In the process, what is put to test is the dividing line between perception and reality. All characters that the journalist creates come into his life with a set of stories that are entirely their own. In them one finds the pain of transition, the emptiness of urban life, the phoniness of superficial relationships and the allure of youthful love. Around all this runs a deep and tragic undercurrent of desensitization of human life, triggered by media hype.

produced by Ranga Shankara and Sanchaya.
