Barad is the story of a farming family from rural Maharashtra. The main characters are two brothers and their widowed sister. The brothers have a dispute over their land and decide not to cultivate it until the issue is resolved. But as the story unfolds, the conflict slowly becomes not just about the land but also about the life of their widowed sister. During this journey, the play makes the audience laugh, sometimes brings tears to their eyes, and makes them think.

Barad with its strong writing, realistic acting, suitable set design, evocative music, and effective lighting, takes the audience into the atmosphere of rural life and creates a vivid and emotional theatre experience. By the end of the play, the audience leaves the theatre with the feeling that they have witnessed something truly special.
