About the Play
Muhammad Bin Tughlaq (1325-1351) is widely regarded as the most eccentric sultan to ever rule Delhi. He has been variously depicted as a genius and a fool, a compassionate ruler and a cruel monarch held captive by his whims. This play selects the most interesting incidents from the sultan’s life to illustrate the enigma that Tughlaq remains for historians to this day.
