People at a One BHK event before the lockdown
Facilitated by author, playwright and communication designer Samira Gupta, One BHK will invite the audience to participate in collectively reading a story. Here, two characters will find their voices in six individuals, and it will be followed by a discussion.
A non-linear narrative written by Gupta, One BHK explores the strong yet conflicting bond between a mother and daughter through phone calls, emails, texts and recollections over a year. It marks the transition of their relationship into a friendship. It's a journey that lays bare the loneliness and guilt, coming to terms with growing up and growing old. In a way, it is about those who have left home to find a new one.
"It may be a work of fiction but is grounded in the realities of our relationships with our parents. We want to touch upon personal relationships and provide a safe space for dialogue. The discussions will encourage sharing of memories and the growth of our relationships with our parents," shares Gupta.
