Legitimate Hooey - Play March 31, 2009

The play reveals 17 nights in the life of a modern-day young urban couple Nilu and Anju. When Nilu and Anju manage to escape their annoying roommate Radha and get their own flat, the couple is overjoyed. Anju is a working woman and works for a leading boutique in the city whereas Nilu is a playwright without much success. This light veined play examines the age-old questions couples must face every day: Is it better to tell love stories to each other, or just watch TV? Should men be forced to go for shopping? Should the fan be on even though it makes an annoying sound? Does love really exists or is it just a big reasonable nonsense?
