Delhi Theatre Festival set to host Saurabh Shukla’s ‘Barff’
The Delhi Theatre Festival being in its debut year which shall be featuring the biggest names in theatre has included Barff to be showcased to the audience.
The man behind the story and direction is national award winning actor Saurabh Shukla.
“As Barff is a different play and it’s a Hindi thriller which is very rare in Indian theatre circuit, so I’m hoping the same wonderful reaction from Delhi Theatre Festival audience like we got from other places," said he.
Set in picturesque Kashmir during winter, BARFF is a thriller which spans over one night. Desperate parents of an ailing child and an unsuspecting doctor are the three lives caught in the whirlwind of conflicting questions of truth, reality and belief.
The cast is compact, made up of: actor/director Saurabh Shukla, Sunil Kumar Palwal who was last seen in the movie Jolly LLB 2 and popular film and TV actress Sadiya Siddique.
It would be interesting to see Saurabh Shukla who is more commonly seen in comic roles, to perform in a Hindi thriller after quite a while.
Producer Ashvin Gidwani said it was a “special experience” for him and seems confident about the audience enjoying the play as they have been receiving an overwhelming response wherever they have performed in India.
