Adapted and directed by Akarsh Khurana, "Timeloss" was originally written by the celebrated Iranian playwright Amir Reza Koohestani.

The play's cast includes Chaitnya Sharma, Dilshad Edibam Khurana, Shweta Tripathi Sharma, and Siddharth Kumar.Q: On her engagement with theatre and actingA: My parents and sister were always culturally inclined. Since I can remember, we used to watch Prithvi Theatre Festival plays, visit Kamani auditorium in Delhi regularly, and watch Hema Malini's dance recitals. My dad's an IAS officer and mom's a teacher, now both retired, and they believed that you get what knowledge you can from books but your personality develops through the arts. So ever since I was a child, I was encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities and I enjoyed being on stage. The support you get from your family and the life lessons they teach you are equally important as your craft and skills. How this has helped me through the years is that stage fright isn't a feeling I've had. There are butterflies and excitement but never fear and theatre has helped me with that.I only started acting professionally on stage once I moved to Bombay( With inputs from IANS )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
