Letter From Shekhar Kapur

I applaud Sohaila and her team members for Mahim Junction. It is a fascinating premise for a musical and extremely entertaining without losing its inherent social comment on our urban lives. I am proud to be associated with this production.

I wish Sohaila and her team luck, and also congratulate Lata Bhasin and the Ashok Hotel for their support for a new wave in Indian Theatrical experience.

----Shekhar Kapur, Bafta winner & Oscar nominated director of `Elizabeth’:

“Mahim Junction is a platform where all the communities of India coexist peacefully...a once true picture of India and a hopeful one at that. The musical is delightful, funny, meaningful & even contemporary, despite being rooted in the 1970s; with an ensemble of fine actors. Superb directorial achievement by Sohaila Kapur."

----Satish Kaushik, Bollywood director of hits like Tere Naam & Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai

"I found the play enormously good fun, full of humour and energy. A must -see for anyone who loves Hindi films!"

----Poonam Saxena, Associate Editor, Hindustan Times & Editor, `Brunch’

"The play encompasses so many facets of Bollywood of the 1970s, it is both, a crash course for beginners and a happy blast from the past for seniors. I loved it".
