‘Quli-Dilon Ka Shahzaada’ Play at Experimental Theatre, NCPA

EFT Report, Mumbai: Based on the love-legend of the founder of Hyderabad, Poet-Prince Quli Qutub Shah and his danseuse beloved Bhagmati, this heritage production is a tale of two artistes, from diverse origins and cultures and how their feelings for each other transform and gave birth to a city and a distinct identity to its people. A tale of pure, unconditional love for each other and for their riyaaya (people in their kingdom). These characters, though historical, could be two individuals of today… timeless, universal. Their love, like theatre, transcends barriers and boundaries-- geographical, religious and cultural. The production has an interesting structure; a dialogue between Quli and Bhagmati, choreographed shadow play, live qawwali with nazms and verses written by Prince Quli Qutub Shah himself in Urdu/Persian, period sets and costumes.
