About the DVD

Cho's Sattiram Sonnathillai

In this stage play 'Cho' S.Ramaswamy, the popular actor, playwright, lawyer, columnist and parliamentarian makes a strong social statement against casteism. Armed with his archetypal humour and acerbic comments, he ruthlessly exposes the duplicity and decadence caused by people’s rigid and mindless affinity to caste. Witty yet brilliantly analytical and thought provoking, the play has a strong undercurrent of a righteous indignation against the system and its distorted values. Again, like any other play of 'Cho', it is still relevant to the contemporary scene, several decades after it was staged first.
