What is women's identity in the society? They are traditionally treated either as daughters or wives. Are they born only to perform the household chores and satisfy male desire? Madhabi, originally a Hindi play by Bhisham Sahni and translated into Bangla by Ashis Goswami, confronts these questions.

The story shows the plight of the protagonist Madhobi: no one cares about her emotions. Madhobi's father, Jajati, to prove himself the greatest philanthropist in the world, sacrifices his daughter to Galab. The latter too, in turn, sells his wife to three kings for 800 horses with which to pay his mentor's dues to his guru Bishwamitra. Even Bishwamitra oppresses Madhobi to some extent.

Ramendu Majumdar is the director of the play. Mustafa Monwar is the set designer while Nasirul Haque Khokon is the light designer.

Ferdausi Majumdar, Toupa Majumdar, Joglul Alam, Apan Ahsan and others perform in Madhobi.
