Alyque Padamsee hits the nerve by adapting two classic scripts — Broken Images by Girish Karnad and the classic script of Death of A Salesman; that spell out building paranoia, stress and meaninglessness of identity in today’s day and age.

The first is a psychological thriller featuring Shabana Azmi in a consummating performance as the protagonist Manjula Sharma. The script covers the journey of a mediocre Hindi writer (Azmi) who attempts to write in English and gains much fame and popularity. Alyque Padamsee himself will render Arthur Miller’s oft-performed play in the lead along with the “stupendous” Sabira Merchant who will investigate the aspirations of the middle class.
