Ve Din / Those Days is a poignant theatrical adaptation of Nirmal Verma’s introspective novella, set against the wintry backdrop of Prague, Czechoslovakia. The narrative delves into the life of a young Indian student navigating the complexities of isolation, cultural displacement, and emotional detachment while living far from home.
The storyline unfolds over a few cold winter days, focusing on the protagonist's interactions with a select few characters, most notably Rayna, an Austrian girl. Their relationship is characterized by silence, ambiguity, and unfulfilled emotions, highlighting the nuances of human connection and the spaces between words. Other fleeting characters, such as a Czech roommate and fellow foreign students, further accentuate the overarching themes of longing and alienation.
Prague itself emerges as a silent character in the play—its cold, distant aura mirroring the protagonist's internal landscape. The city's unfamiliarity and emotional barrenness underscore the feelings of waiting, remembering, and gradual detachment from everything once known.
