Portrait of an artist

Every artist has a journey. A journey filled with ups and downs, acceptance and rejection, pain and dissatisfaction. The play Tansen explores this journey through the life of legendary Tansen. What was it that made him the greatest musician and what was his search till the end of his life? The play has been staged over 110 times in four years across India and abroad and has won the hearts of the audiences and critics. It will be staged this week at The Trialogue Studio, GK1. Tickets available on bookmyshow.com

Comic timing

It takes exemplary courage to sit in the first two rows of a Harsh Gujral show because he will get you. He has been known to find humour in some of the most regular life situations.
