Chidiyon ka Pinjra to be staged at Ranga Shakara

Chidiyon ka Pinjra, written and directed by Ramneek Singh, tells the story of Rulda and Rinku, two men separated by a generation, but joined by one need – the need to escape. Set in a village, Garhi Mahasingh, in Punjab’s vast countryside, it is a tale of longing for freedom as much as getting trapped in its quest. Of moving on as much as the need for never forgetting, of borders, smugglers, immigration agents and passports, of scars left by history, of a homeland lost to conflict and men reduced to numbers, of running from the past, of running away from a destiny, of running till one's legs give way.
The cast and crew of the play is formed by Padmavathi Rao, Mayuresh Nirhali, Swetanshu Bora, Pranay Pandey, Akhshay Gandhi, Parvathi Om, Salmin Sheriff and Abhinav Kimothi.
The play has received various awards and recognition including: Toto Funds the Arts (TFA) Creative Writing Award 2012 and Shyamanand Jalan National Youth Theatre Award.
