Political satire



piece one






piece two


piece three




all these three were presented in a pitch black room with a single spot light in a location that was partially under construction and had been ignored for a long time.

the reason for choosing a place such as this was that over the past few years, this thought has been growing onto me, that, the political condition of this country has been forgotten incessantly. everyone who steps to "power" tends to play with the tendons of this fragmented country as if it were their toys, and when they are
absconded from power, all the affairs lie in shambles.

there are many of us who would follow a party for the sake of loyalty despite knowing how the hardball is being played. twisted power struggles that leave the people and the economy strangled with no escape routes.

Pakistani politics just like their movies has had its round of applause, too early. too early have the leaders left us, too early have we become apathetic to the present situation, too early have we stopped caring for the freedom we take for granted.... too early have we let go.
