We are all aware of who Khondaker Mostaq is: a traitor, a 'rashtrodrohi'. He is the Mir Jafar of our time. Between the lines of the play 'Rajdrohi', Rezanur Rahman shows us how a revered writer with ill intent can manipulate society through writing, thus creating one Khondaker Mostaq or a Mir Jafar in each generation. Rezanur wisely chose our 51st Victory Day, on 16 December, to deliver this crucial message in the most subtle possible way, at the Experimental Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy.
