About this event

Renowned Russian writer Anton Chekhov’s works bear the hallmark of his deeply perceptive understanding of life. Four of his satirical short stories about exploitation were adapted by multi-hyphenate theatre personality Dinesh Thakur into his Hindi play, Aapas Ki Baat.

These stories shed light on the many kinds of exploitation that occur in a divided society, especially when the line between the exploiter and the exploited begins to fade. The characters include a mistress who talks down to her maid; a man who woos the object of his desire through her own husband; a man on the beach attempting to sell his unique brand of entertainment at great risk to his life; and a woman who enters a bank to extort money. Together, they pose the question: Are we all being exploited while we are busy exploiting someone else?
