Join Fireweavers – Pune’s Biggest Theatre Group!

Fireweavers present “The Case of the Man who died LAUGHING”:
According to Indian Penal Code, Section 302, “Whoever commits murder shall be punished with death, or imprisonment for life and shall also be liable to fine”. But what if the murder is commited by Goddess KALI? Is there any punishment for the divine power. Or if Kali kills a person, should we Indians especially Hindus assume that she has the right to kill and accept the deceased as a SINNER??Finally, a challenging case of superstition v/s reality comes across the India’s ‘MOST PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR’, Vish Puri this time. Dr. Suresh Jha, a non believer in superstition and a celebrated Rationalist who was very famously known as the ‘GURU BUSTER’, has been punished by the Goddess KALI-the goddess of dissolution and destruction, because of his atheist nature in Delhi when he was attending the therapeutic Laughter exercise.

Can Vish Puri bust this myth or does he himself starts believing in the mystical appearance of the Goddess, as whole India has witnessed KALI, destroying Dr. Jha on news channels.
