Raindrops on my window

Life passes by and there comes a moment when you wonder whether you`re in love with the person or in love with the feeling of love itself. How does one talk about separation? Do we even have the right words to describe something that can be both utterly mundane and completely transcendent, pulling us out of our everyday lives and making us feel a part of something greater than ourselves? 'Raindrops On my window' provides an intimate window into the great events and quotidian trifles of being within a couple, giving you an indelible
and deeply moving portrait of love in contemporary times. A simple play about love and its loss; a couple`s contemplation - was it merely the loss of love or much more?

From the Critics' Column
"Two loving souls living under the same roof suffer the loss of not only the novelty but the meaning of life as they go through the years of routine, languishing in ever-increasing misery and loneliness, looking for alternatives. It cannot be said that this midlife crisis is only an urban upper-middle-class reality but also a visceral phenomenon across societies of different kinds and its tragedy only becomes darker. Omkar Bhatkar's literature explores the purposelessness of life, the boredom that overwhelms relationships, and the basic human loneliness through flowing repetitive soliloquies. In a boring routine, seemingly pointless moments can also act as a ticking time bomb. Indecisive milestones become an endless pattern. Through myriad micro-spaces, 'Raindrops on my window' raises many fundamental questions about love and togetherness."
