Sameera Iyengar<\/h2><\/div>
Advisor<\/span><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]Sameera inhabits the world of dramaturgy and acting where these act as the necessary provocation a society needs to shake itself out of its complacency. If all the world\u2019s a stage, then who are our actors? And what has become of our traditions of oral storytelling, passed from one generation to the next? These are some of Sameera\u2019s pivotal concerns that bridge the gap between `acts,\u2019 and activism. Theatre is action. She has until recently been a director at the Mumbai based foundation Junoon, an eclectic space for art and innovation. It\u2019s this varied tapestry of experience and perspective that Sameera brings to Sarfaroshi and we exploit it fully. When Sameera isn\u2019t reframing the universe one act at a time, she is obsessing over her two children – a cat and a dog and makes everyone participate in this love via constant Facebook posts.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1659496656363{margin-top: 10px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1659496663293{margin-top: 10px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_btn title=”The Sarfaroshis” style=”outline” color=”juicy-pink” size=”sm” align=”center” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-angle-double-left” button_block=”true” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fsarfaroshi.net%2Fen%2Fteam%2F%23BOARD|title:The%20Sarfaroshis”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_btn title=”S.
