Rafik Hariri translated some parts of the novel and dramatized the play. Though the play has been written based on medieval incidents, but the writer draws present time politics, social incidents, personal conflicts parallelly.
Jadur Latim an allegorical-social drama running for one and a half hour, tells about two nefarious jinns named Ifrid and Kufrid. Ifrid roaming around in the veins of the people and Kufrid create chaos, doubt and disbelief in the minds of people by misinterpreting them about religion.
The cast of the play includes Rais-ul-Islam, Mostofa Kamal, AKM Shahidullah Kaiser, Sohel Rana, Salam Khokon, Ananya Goswami and more.
Earlier, the premiere show of the play staged at the same venue on Friday. President of Sammilita Sanskritik Jote Golam Kuddus and secretary general of Bangladesh Group Theatre Federation Akhtaruzzaman were present at the maiden show of the play.
