The play is about the eloquent projection of travails of Modern Day woman in India,which is similar to the life of Draupadi that unfolded thousands of years ago. Shivani Pasrich elaborated,on the occasion of the 100 year anniversary celebration of the national woman's day it is hugely relevant to empower each other with our thoughts and actons. This play is my drop in the ocean urging people to use their strength to be resilient,learning from the past and creating a better tomorrow. The concept of the play has a social & charitable purpose,which is committed to the fight against breast cancer. The fund,which will be raised through the play,will go to Breast Cancer Patients Benefits Foundation founded by Dr. Sameer Kaul which is making an effort to tackle the crux of the matter - non-availability of finances in the financially under privileged sections of our community. The charity also includes an outreach programme that aims to impart knowledge and motivate the higher strata of society to contribute towards the noble cause by conducting fund raising events. We must give back to society,despite our ever increasing busy lives,thats how all of us can defeat cancer says Dr Sameer Kaul,leading Oncology surgeon and President of BCPBF.
