The play ‘Bulha ‘ is a tribute to the great mystic. It is broadly based on the events of his life, as communicated through his poetry, historical records and popular myths. And there is no dearth of dramatic episodes in the life Bulleh Shah. His search for truth, his devotion to his mentor Shah Inayat, his conflict with the intolerant clergy and corrupt Nawabs, his oppositions to the wars and blood shed in the name of religion-all are incorporated as powerful scenes in the play. The play is also about the timed of Bulleh Shah and had a great relevance to present-day South Asia.
