Eminent playwright Anwar Maqsood’s play Saadhay 14 August directed by Dawar Mehmood will be staged at the Arts Council of Pakistan, Karachi, after Eid ul Fitr for a two-month run in the city. Speaking at a press conference, Mr Maqsood said in 2011 he wrote Poonay 14 August. “Someone asked me what does that mean, why not 14 August? I replied that I’m waiting for 14 August. Whenever 14 August will come [in the true sense] I will do a play with that title. Giving details of the subject for his upcoming play, Mr Maqsood said, “In the play a man files a case against Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah and Gandhi as to who is responsible for the decline of a huge state. Then they’re asked to go to four cities to find out who’s responsible. The cities are: Kashmir, Lahore, Delhi and London. So, the play is divided into four parts. First, Quaid and Gandhi go to Kashmir, then Lahore, Delhi and London.” The writer also added that his heart tells him that the play will be liked by the audiences.
