Designed and Directed by Prakash Belawadi
Location : Rangashankara
| In tribute to the author (died: 13 May 2011) |
Baki Itihas, Badal Sircar’s ruthless interrogation of the Sixties, of the dreary middle-class obsessions with owning a home, making a career and getting promotions, combined with the numbing apathy towards monstrously transformational global events – both historical and contemporary – find a surprising resonance in our own times. Written in 1965, echoing the Angry Young voices of Europe which were disgusted with war and the impersonal and mindless violence it brings, The Other Side of History was a call to conscience.
In the light of the thwarted Arab spring, our own frustration with callous and corrupt governance and a terrifying globalisation, The Other Side of History addresses the Indian middle-class that struggles with the same old obsessions, inane and bored, scared to read the writing on the wall.
