Theatre (Bailey Road) stages Kuhakjal at BSA today

Theatre (Bailey Road) will stage its much-acclaimed production ‘Kuhakjal’ today at the Experimental Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA), Segun Bagicha in the city. Written by Masum Reza and instructed by Tropa Majumder, the play has depicted the eternal love between a young rural couple Ghuran Sardar and Chandura. Chandura’s father marries off her to a twice-married businessman in exchange for a huge amount of cultivable land. Seeing his beloved with a powerful businessman, the sorrowful Ghuran leaves his house to be far away from her sweetheart Chandura. In his new place, Ghuran Sardar becomes the witnesses of the tragic death of his friend, namely Kamakkhi, a Hindu, who eloped with his Muslim employer’s daughter. Dejected, Ghuran returns home and tries to marry Chandura, who is by now deserted by her husband. But the venture fails as Chandura refuses him.
After getting turned down, Ghuran goes away again, and all of a sudden encounters an indigenous educated woman named Somani at a dance class where she is seen teaching dance lessons to a number of indigenous youths. Ghuran sees these indigenous people are in a conflict with a businessman and a Christian priest who want to grab their land forcedly. Become more dejected and shaken, Ghuran returns to his village and finds his childhood friend Aghor as death. Aghor was killed in the hands of Chandura’s husband while he tried to save the humiliated Chandura. Ghuran does not want to see any more, and he stabs his own eyes out. The probable cast of the play includes veteran actors Ferdousi Majunder, Ramendu Majumder, Tofa Hossain, Rashed Shaon and Tanvir Hossain, among others.

Where:    BSA, Segun Bagicha
