Stage Play - Tughlaq

Tughlaq is an enigmatic play about a misunderstood ruler in history. It captures the reign of a man who got too much power and couldn’t understand how to wield such authority on unwilling subjects. The play was initially written in Kannada and was translated in English by Karnad. The play is timeless. Its many linguistic translations and interpretations are proof enough of its brilliance. The play is about a king who could not understand his subjects and about subjects who were not ready for the King’s dream of a perfect kingdom. “Mad Mohammad” or “Sanki Sultan”, the names that were pinned on him seemed appropriate as he shifted his kingdom from Delhi to Daulatabad – a move which brought his kingdom to its knees. The further disillusionment that Tughlaq went through led him to isolate himself from his people as intolerance reached its peak. He is surrounded by people who slander him, plot against him and murder each other ruthlessly. It is considered as a political play as it represents the reign of a king and his various moves to unify the Hindus and Muslims.
