Set in late 19th-century Nashik, KARUNASHATAKE is a poetic meditation on womanhood, widowhood, and the silences imposed upon both. Within a world governed by ritual and restraint, grief becomes a language, and mourning turns into a subtle act of defiance. Through rhythm, memory, and music, the play explores how collective sorrow can transform into awakening. Neither historical nor mythical, KARUNASHATAKE stands as an elegy and an uprising - a hymn to the unseen strength of women who dared to feel, remember, and endure.
