After making stage performances for several years, she returned to this form, but this time, solo. Since 2012, she has been responding to events and controversial issues that have engaged women and other sections of society who are taken up with the struggle for rights.

Dafa No. 180 After the overwhelming public response to Om Swaha, some of the performers decided to create a street theatre group. THEATRE UNION was born in late 1979. The group, in response to debates then going on in parliament created a street play, DAFA NO. 180 to look at the issue of punishment for rape.
