Andha Yug by Dharamvir Bharati
Set on the final day after a devastating war, this poetic play depicts a kingdom and its people morally blind from violence and revenge, as rulers and warriors wrestle with guilt, duty and the collapse of justice. Through the anguished figures of the blind king and his grieving family, and the vengeful actions of defeated warriors, it presents the futility of cyclical bloodshed and the moral responsibility of leaders, functioning as a haunting allegory about the consequences of war for a newly independent nation.
