Respected Prof. Agarawal,
Shall request your guidance for producing an original play on That unique weaver of Benaras – Kabir with strong music inputs explaining the modernity of this almost six hundred years old sage.
My earlier plays have been ‘Dara Shikoh – A historic betrayal’, ‘Amrita – A sublime Love Story’, ‘Kuchh Ishq Kiya Kuchh
Kaam, and some more. Run a cultural set up named Impresario Asia. Shall be grateful for your learned views. Regards. K.K. Kohli
