This musical monoact play in Hindi depicts exciting life story of great reformist, poet and philosopher “Kabeer”.
600 years ago, this legendary saint challenged deep-rooted social evils ailing the society.
With 45 song sequences, this two hour long play unfolds making of this revolutionary social reformer who was discovered floating in a pond, on his day of birth, by a Muslim couple Neeru & Nima.
He grew in ancient holy city – Kashi amidst temples and mosques, only to discover deeply entrenched superstition propagated by religious leaders and priests.
Play truly reflects influence of great saints like Guru Ramanand, Raidas, and Sheikh Fareed on Kabeer.
Touching enactment of Kabeer’s marriage with Loyee, meeting with Sikandar Shah Lodhi and other incidences underlines Shekhar’s sterling performance.
Sung in rich voice and supported by melodious music Kabeer’s poems, appropriately woven in the play, tenderly touch our soul.
Mesmerized audience rediscovers Kabeer’s message of love and peace & religious harmony, a message that binds us together shedding religious hatred.
“Kabeer” has been conceived, written, composed, directed and acted by Shekhar Sen – a renowned singer and music director credited with more than 1000 live performances and over 188 cassettes and CDs.
Actor-Writer-Director : Shekhar Sen.
