he Drama is autobiography of an 85 year old, retired, famous advocate, who has everything for his lonely comfortable living. The play unfolds incidents of life, gradually one by one, there arises dilemma, Sometimes, nothing is wrong according to laws, at the same time question arises whether it is good thing or evil. What is essential for an autobiography - is it the body or eternal soul??

Sripathi M acted well as the fake witness for the lawyer throughout his service years. Usha Bhandari, young and beautiful lady coming to lawyers office in search of job. She expresses her helplessness for being a victim of lawyers desires. Son, Sharath, coming from Australia, narrates how his mother died.
The lawyer, born to a poor family, runs away from the grandfather's house with gold ornaments from the temple, has no regrets. He became so famous and proud that not one case, he was defeated, except the last one, after which, he stopped practicing. He kept his old father, with broken hip, for 20 years in the hospital, who refused to undergo surgery.
The daughter "Surabhi" was raped by a powerful group, whose case the old man deliberately did not want to win......
The man in his hey days rejects all the awards, RajyaSabha membership, as he was "ATHEETHA"
The superb dialogues, acting, without much of stage setting, music and lighting, captivates the audience.
