Vijay Tendulkar (1928 - 2008) is one of India’s finest contemporary playwrights. Written originally in Marathi in 1972, SAKHARAM BINDER was banned in 1974 because it was considered too violent and vulgar. Since then, it has been translated into many Indian languages and staged all over the world. Prominent artists such as Amrish Puri, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Sayaji Shinde, Nilu Phule, Sulbha Deshpande and Sonali Kulkarni have been associated with the play.

The Sakharam Sets team at Work !!!
Sakharam Binder lives in rural small town India in a "bachelor's" house. The challenge was to build two rooms including the kitchen where the all action takes place.
It involves building and painting "flats" which are wooden structures used to signify walls and doors and windows of a house. We also had to build authentic pieces like "chulha's" to signify rural small town India. Also the house needs to have the look of an unkempt place to a certain extent with the walls being dirty, the doors being old and give it a rustic and crass look to go along with the main character of the play- Sakharam.
