Play: This play is written by Sardar Gursharan Singh the
legend of Punjabi theatre. This play shows mentality of typical Indian Society.
As our title is BAANJ so it clearly shows the theme of the play. This story
revolves around a lady who has no child even after several years of her marriage;
her mother-in-law blames her despite of the knowledge about medical report
given by doctor, stating man to be the reason of non fertility. Therefore, the
story focuses on the social evils like superstations prevailing in our society
and how dhongi baba’s try to take advantage of these instruments, and male
chauvinist approach, with which the protagonist fights for her rights.
