Aadyam Theatre returns for its eighth season with the first play that marks a new experimentation for the initiative by foraying into the supernatural thriller territory with 'Ankahi'. 

Ankahi continues the previous season’s tradition of transforming classical texts into immersive, theatrical experiences. It is a Hindi adaptation of Susan Hill’s celebrated horror story, The Woman In Black. Its English adaptation for the stage by Stephen Mallatratt, became one of the longest-running West End productions. It follows the story of a middle-aged lawyer, Sandeepan Chauhan, who is carrying the baggage of a haunted truth. In an attempt to free himself from it, he finds an unusual channel in a young, sceptical theatre actor who helps him stage his horror - the account of how a simple legal matter of settling deceased Fatima Illyas’ estate unfolds a darker truth hidden in the marshes of West Bengal.
