The play is about the human faces that brave odds, put their own lives at risk and help people irrespective of their religion, cast and creed, in every atrocity which is perpetrated by religious zealots. Kharaashein has been described as an emotional experience one must go through and be stirred to the depth of one's soul. Mathura Kalauny, on the other hand, has been staging meaningful plays for the past 20 years in the City.
