The "Mayamruga": The title refers to a "mirage-like" creature or a "magical animal," symbolizing the irrational, superstitious beliefs that people often chase or fear.
The play highlights from the works of renowned Kannada writer Poornachandra Tejaswi`s rational, yet deeply observational, look at human nature, focusing on the absurdity of superstitions and sometimes absurd, reality of human behaviour and sometimes spooky, experiences into a profound and funny reflection on life, consistent with Poornachandra Tejaswi`s signature literary style. The play revolves around Tejaswi and his friends exploring a graveyard in search of a "ghost" or a "supernatural" entity. It explores the human tendency to believe in superstitions and the irrational, turning it into a, often satirical and humorous, narrative.
This play has been produced by theatre group "Dhwani" and the play will be staged at Ranga Shankara in Bengaluru, Directed by Prithvi Aradhya.
