Legitimate Hooey - Play August 13, 2009

Legitimate Hooey - Play. The play reveals 14 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. Appreciating the fact of having a whole new space for romantic, mush filled love. But the story doesn't fulfil in true sense and they soon find their bliss is short lived. Articulating and expressing the love for one another they also whine and complain about all possible issues. Added to it, they also bitch about a close friend supposedly the best gossip monger, cheap rumour spreader in the whole wide world. They also fearlessly express their failures and inabilities in their respective lives. 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 to for shopping? Should the fan be on even though it makes an annoying sound? Does love really exists or is it just Americanized' cross section of the world of this couple. The technique and the setting are such that the audience too feels as if indulging in voyeurism.
