Pune sheds light on NE burning issues
Seven Sisters Post | Abdul Gani | Guwahati (Sept 10):
Far away from the killing fields of the Bodo heartland and volatile valleys of Manipur, a one-act play staged at Pune has evoked keen interest and discussions on Northeast’s troubled times. On Sunday, people in Pune were discussing Northeast and Assam as a one-act play on the life and struggles of “Iron Lady” Irom Sharmila was staged.
Pune-based theatre artiste Ojas S V adapted Malayalam playwright Civic Chandran’s drama Meira Paibi (Women torch-bearers of Manipur) in La Mashale to get the urban audience hooked onto the life of Manipur’s “Iron Lady”. Ojas has already performed the 40-minute-long soliloquy on stage several times across the country in the last couple of years. She says her objective is to bring people closer to the heroic life of Sharmila and to throw light on cases of human rights violation in Manipur.
