It’s been 4 years since a health crisis caused the closure of all theatres in Hyderabad. Three individuals, presumed to be actors, step on a stage for an audition or is it a public reading? Or... it might even be the show’s opening!!! The problem is that they don’t have the script. The author hasn’t written it yet. They’re going to have to improvise…

"The Third Law" is a Hindi play written by the award-winning writer Suryasnata Tripathy. It revolves around a young boy's fascination with Newton's third law. As the story unfolds, he embarks on a journey across the country and discovers that life transcends mere action and reaction, extending into the realm of karma. This marks the first time that such an exceptional play with such an exceptional theme will be staged. Our theatre group, Play of Shiva takes pride in doing the same. This play promises to be a visual treat for stage lovers.

"Buddha or Karl Marx" by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar is a work which suggests either a comparison or a contrast between two such personalities divided
by such a lengthy span of time and occupied with different fields of thought. Blue Robin is doing a reading of this work from 5th May to 23rd May with discussions, debates and presentations to produce some local knowledge, followed by Sangham on 25th May

In the hottest month of summer, May, Lamakaan brings you a cool breeze of retro films by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, considered to be a catalyst of the New German Cinema Movement.

Rainer Werner Fassbinder (German: [ˈʁaɪnɐ ˈvɛʁnɐ ˈfasbɪndɐ] ⓘ; 31 May 1945 – 10 June 1982), sometimes credited as R. W. Fassbinder,[1] was a German filmmaker, actor, and dramatist. He is widely regarded as one of the major figures and catalysts of the New German Cinema movement. Versatile and prolific, his over 40 films span a variety of genres, most frequently blending elements of Hollywood melodrama with social criticism and avant-garde techniques.[2] His films, according to him, explored "the exploitability of feelings".[3][4] His work was deeply rooted in post-war German culture: the aftermath of Nazism, the German economic miracle, and the terror of the Red Army Faction. He worked with a company of actors and technicians who frequently appeared in his projects.

This self-funded documentary is about what used to be a little known event until the 1980s but which has now become the single largest annual pilgrimage in India: the Kanwar Yatra. The film looks at not just the religious and cultural aspects of the Yatra but also its socio-economic impact, the environmental issues attached to it (for instance, the state of the Ganga and the potential for man-animal conflict, etc), the sheer maleness of the event, and how the occasion is being used by Hindu right-wing groups to push their majoritarian agenda and the showcase it has become for Hindu nationalism.

The nearly 90-minute film was shot over a period of six years and was an official selection at the 8th Kolkata People's Film Festival in 2022. The film has had a screening at Prithvi Theatre, Bombay, and over 35 universities across the world, including Princeton, Yale, Columbia and Stanford, have acquired it to screen/stream it for their students, faculty and staff.

In the hottest month of summer, May, Lamakaan brings you a cool breeze of retro films by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, considered to be a catalyst of the New German Cinema Movement.

Rainer Werner Fassbinder (German: [ˈʁaɪnɐ ˈvɛʁnɐ ˈfasbɪndɐ] ⓘ; 31 May 1945 – 10 June 1982), sometimes credited as R. W. Fassbinder,[1] was a German filmmaker, actor, and dramatist. He is widely regarded as one of the major figures and catalysts of the New German Cinema movement. Versatile and prolific, his over 40 films span a variety of genres, most frequently blending elements of Hollywood melodrama with social criticism and avant-garde techniques. His films, according to him, explored "the exploitability of feelings". His work was deeply rooted in post-war German culture: the aftermath of Nazism, the German economic miracle, and the terror of the Red Army Faction. He worked with a company of actors and technicians who frequently appeared in his projects.

Nagaram is a well knitted plot of many lives and many small stories leading to one.
Gang wars, love at first sight, desire to be the best and most powerful, control of the neighborhood, revenge, failed administrations and a gang war backed by the socio-political society. Innocent lives falling in to the so called “power” trap and humanity losing its case at every step of the way.
Two youngsters fall in love from the rival gangs and the never lasting tension between the gangs lead to a tragedy. Do they ever set aside their differences or there will always be such tragedies?
