Gursharan Singh wrote over two hundred drama scripts. Many of these were original plays, others were based on short stories, novels and even poems from contemporary writings. In 2010-11, writer and artistic director, Kewal Dhaliwal, published seven volumes of Gursharan Singh’s collected plays and released them in Chandigarh in the presence of Gursharan Singh. We discovered a few more scripts after the publication of these seven volumes. These will be brought out in another volume in the coming year. The seven volumes are being added with much gratitude to Kewal Dhaliwal, who is also a member of the Trust.

Voiced by the legendary Naseeruddin Shah (or similar deep, baritone talents depending on the re-release), every decree from Mount Sinai sounds less like a Hollywood effect and more like a Rishi delivering a curse. The quiet humility of the burning bush scene and the roaring fury of the gold calf scene—Shah’s modulation makes Moses a distinctly Indian hero: stoic, suffering, yet unstoppable.
