  3. Pierrot's Troupe Presents Sons Of Babur


The central character of the play is, of course, Bahadur Shah Zafar, the last Mughal emperor, languishing in exile in far away Rangoon.

In the present times, he has an ardent admirer in Rudranshu Sengupta, the protagonist and a university student. Rudranshu is so obsessed with the life of the last Mughal that he has a virtual supernatural experience that transports him to meet Bahadur Shah in person. From then on, the play swings between fantasy and reality, past and present, logic and emotion, fact and fiction. Rudranshu is taken on a guided tour by Bahadur Shah through various milestone events of the Mughal era. They effortlessly slide into the world of Babur, Humayun, Akbar, Jahangir, Shahjahan and Aurangzeb.

As the play progresses, one cannot but in turn be enamored by the benevolence of the Mughals, feel disgust at their ambition, become fearful of their cruelty and also admire their ability to unite diverse populations into an entity called Hindustan.
