Didi IAS is being staged as part of Natya Kumbh. A travelling festival that celebrates drama and the dramatist by staging the works of the playwright, Mrinal Mathur, performed by some of the prominent directors and theatre groups of India. A total of eight plays will be on view between the 4 th ,10 th and 11 th of June, at LTG Auditorium, Delhi.

Didi IAS is a play about a newly appointed minister wanting to reign in recalcitrant artists and how his key bureaucrats, Harry and Partho, come up with a plan. The plan is put in place, by co-opting the country’s leading artists - Didi, Betaabji and Sugarji into the fold. The play jumps to a few years ahead. All is going well until an innocent voice makes itself heard.

His passion has created some of the most powerful renditions of India’s finest plays
