About the play

Directed by noted theatre director Lala Biren Ray, 'Ahe Nilashaila' narrates a powerful historical story centred on devotion and sacrifice. The play portrays the hardships faced by Gajapati King Ramachandra Deva II in his efforts to protect Lord Jagannath's honour from the malicious intentions of Naib Nazim Taqi Khan.

The storyline is partly inspired by the renowned novel 'Nila Saila' by Sahitya Akademi Award-winning Odia writer Surendra Mohanty. The script has been jointly written by eminent playwrights Shankar Prasad Tripathi and Dr. Pratima Hota.
