Event Details

Written, directed and performed by Bollywood star Mahesh Manjrekar.
Animal is a fierce one-man Hindi drama that plunges into the fractured mind of Dattu – a small-town dreamer from near Pandharpur who arrives in Mumbai chasing stardom. What begins with innocence and blind faith soon collides with rejection, ridicule, and ruthless survival.

Alone on stage, Dattu speaks to the city, to invisible crowds, and to his own breaking soul, blurring performance and confession. As dreams decay, laughter turns savage, and ambition bares its claws. Is he a star in the making….or a man slowly losing himself?

A haunting tale of desire, defeat, and the wild beast that awakens when hope begins to die.

Name of the artist/ Group: Mahesh Manjrekar
