Tughlaq: Recounting the series of events that led to the downfall of one of the most fascinating kings to occupy the throne in Delhi, namely, Mohammed-bin-Tughlaq. -- Evam indrajit: A playwright attempts to write an immortal play about the common characters around him. He gets into the lives of 4 college students. While the first three go through the motions of life Indrajit is tortured by the existential angst of some one searching for something more. In the end, he realises the futility of it all and becomes Nirmal, another clone, one amongst the multitude -- Silence" the court is in session: Benare, a sexually abused lady, is cast as the lead in a community play. Her character has striking similarities with her own life. She breaks down during the rehearsals, revealing her past life and plight. Then the play deals with some real life big issues prevailing in the society, and how more often than not, the woman is held guilty.
