Originally a stage show, Makarand Deshpande's Sir Sir Sarla, which explores the complex relationship between a professor and his students, is set to première on Zee Theatre on Tata Sky. Deshpande, who also doubles up as director of the long-running play, is certain that the development will take the narrative to a larger audience.
"Showcasing the play on a new platform will help us reach more consumers. We have been performing Sir Sir Sarla since 2001, and in both, Marathi and Gujarati," says the director, who features alongside Aahana Kumra, Sanjay Dadhich and Anjum Sharma.
