The Shri Ram Centre for Performing Arts (SRCPA) Repertory is staging 2 BY 2, written by Gulzar. An adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Comedy of Errors, the play follows the adventures of two sets of identical twins with identical names, Ashok and Bahadur. The adaptation has been successfully interpreted many times in theatre and cinema, such as the Sanjeev Kumar-Deven Verma starrer Angoor.
