Bahurupi

Directed By Budhan Theatre

This short film explores the lives of the Bahurupi community—traditional performers who make a living by entertaining people and bringing laughter. Once esteemed as informers and entertainers under royal patronage, in the present day, they are often dismissed as impostors. The COVID-19 pandemic made this nomadic community’s life more precarious, further marginalizing them in a rapidly changing world.
