Between Consent and Control
The New Indian Express Tirunelveli|December 15, 2024
During a scene in the play Urmila, the audience spontaneously leans forward and starts clapping spontaneously.
MALLIK THATIPALLI
Between Consent and Control

The titular character is saying, "It's not like I wanted to live my life" when she thinks of her husband Lakshmana, who abandoned her for 14 years and left her to sleep for the entire time. Urmila resolutely calls out his refusal to give her a choice. The audience's applause acknowledges not only the intensity of her emotion but also the universal struggle for autonomy and self-determination of women the role embodies.
