555^th SPECIAL SHOW

Marathi Play

NCPA presentation in collaboration with Bhadrakali Productions

Saint Tukaram was a true and honest devotee of Lord Vitthal. Consumed by this devotion, he dedicated his life to chanting Lord Vitthal’s name, oblivious of time, place, people and consequences. His wife, Avali, spent hours every day looking for him in the mountains near Dehu where Saint Tukaram, detached from the real world, would be immersed in The Divine. It was one of those afternoons. With lunch in her hand, Avali was searching for Saint Tukaram when a wild thorn pierced her foot, and she lost consciousness. A few hours later when she woke up, she found herself in her own house. She saw a strange lady doing her chores at home and taking care of her. The stranger introduced herself as Lakhubai. She was indeed Goddess Rakumai, the wife of Lord Vitthal in disguise.

Lakhubai came to help Avali but her real reason was something else. When Avali lost consciousness, it was Lord Vitthal who took the thorn out of Avali’s foot. Rakumai was baffled. Why would her husband, a great God like Lord Vitthal, touch an ordinary lady’s feet?  Did Rakumai find out why? Did Avali recognise Rakumai?

Sangeet Devbabhali is a soulful musical journey consisting of old and new abhangas that will transport you to a spiritual realm.
