Rahul, Poonam at the premiere of Begum Sahiba

Saw the play at “Sophia Bhabha Auditorium” on Sunday(29-11-2009) and was taken aback by the lack of an audience although the play was heavily advertised on newspapers. It was a very bold play touching a taboo subject on “Sexual Permissiveness in Indian society” and hence i feel that the audience got restricted as some would definitely find the play offensive. The character of “Raj’ really stole the show in a very colourful negative character of the “Sex Trade” as also the heroine with her sensuality. Definitely a very “ADULT DRAMA” and hence most seats were empty as “Sex” is still a “Private discussion”.
