Veteran actress and social activist Shabana Azmi wants a revival of Tumhari Amrita- a play that also featured late actor Farooque Sheikh and premiered over two decades ago. Tumhari Amrita is a play helmed by Feroz Abbas Khan and she says she is persuading the director to revive it.
‘I'm persuading Feroz Khan to revive Tumhari Amrita with a fresh cast. Any ideas on who shud replace Farouque Shaikh and me as Zulfi/ Amrita?,’ Shabana posted on Twitter Tuesday. Inspired by A.R. Guerney's Love Letters, Tumhari Amrita is a funny, poignant, melancholic chronicle of two people would not come together and could not stay apart.
The play ran for 21 years until Farooque's untimely death in December 2013.
The play was created in 1992 by playwright Javed Siddiqui.
