I believe in keeping my characters quirky with reality and thrive to serve sensible comedy without the excuse of illogical humor. For me, entertainment is always the main dish; I dislike preaching as I believe the audience is intelligent enough to conclude morals."
With this Hindi standup comedy play, Bhakti Rathod is entering new territory, having previously made her mark on the Gujarati stage. "Writing comes to me as naturally as acting, and it is my happy place. After the initial plays were received well on the Gujarati stage, my pen became confident to explore more. It is a passion I derived from being a voracious reader, and wanting to tell my stories," Bhakti added.
As the premiere date of October 6th approaches, audiences can expect a show that blends Bhakti’s signature style of quirky characters with sharp, reality-based humor, making her debut in Hindi theatre a highly anticipated event.
