He Bandh Reshmache by Ranjeet Desai

One is bound to return to sobriety some time or the other, after the inebriating high of alcohol, power, or money wanes. But the high of religion is the worst form of addiction. One should not tempt it, Mr…. Why is religion ‘bad’? Who says so? Religion is innocent, ignorant. When religion goes handinhand with humanitarian values, it is like heaven on earth. But religion devoid of humanism is the road to hell, not heaven. Not only one’s belongings but also one’s companions along this road find it nearly impossible to reach their destination unscathed… This high drama captures the inseparable bond between two friends, against the backdrop of the Partition.
