BAAGHI ALBELE Story :

Johny & Minnie Makhija, husband and wife are famous actors from a renowned theatre company in Ludhiana. During a performance of Hamlet, a young and handsome soldier of an underground rebel organisation B.O.L (Sukhwinder Singh) leaves just as Johny begins the soliloquy, "to be or not to be” leaving Johny in a rage and Minnie with a new secret admirer.
A short time later, following the prohibition orders of the government, all performances are stopped, theatres are closed and so begins the chaos that ensues with the artists being forced to hide underground while also plotting a movement to bring back theatre and live performances.

This masterpiece, pairs comic absurdity with grim reality. Within the dismal setting of censorships and general crackdowns on comedians, journalists, writers and artists, absolutely all stake-holders participate in this comedy.
