The ongoing 80th anniversary celebrations of IPTA will witness the romance of Kaifi Aur Main on stage

Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar perform an earlier production
The romance of revolution has not faded even in the 21st century. This week, the audience at Prithvi Theatre will experience its latest iteration in a collection of plays, including Javed Akhtar’s Kaifi Aur Main.
Written by Akhtar and directed by Ramesh Talwar, the play captures the life and times of poet Kaifi Azmi and his wife, actor Shaukat Kaifi, their struggles and love for each other. Actor Shabana Azmi, who has been part of her parents’ story since its first staging in 2006, tells us, “I often feel that it is a gift that I am sharing with the world.”
