<p>Akvarious Productions’s play follows a man from South Mumbai in an entertaining morality tale; one that warns you of being too self-indulgent</p>

"I love all women so much, I am practically a feminist," is a line said by protagonist, Chaitanya Bhardwaj, also knows as CB, of Colaba Casanova. The problem is that he loves them all in a love-them-leave-them-who-cares way. The Akvarious Productions play, adapted by Akarsh Khurana from Moliere’s Don Juan, is based on the life and legend of the French seducer of men, Don Juan. "I had read many versions of Don Juan and wanted to make it work in a Mumbai setting. And, since we knew we would be performing it at places like Brewbot, we knew we would have an 18 plus audience. That’s why we haven’t held back on the sexuality and profanity," he says.
