Wedding Album, the latest play written by renowned playwright Girish Karnad, is a hilarious and moving spectacle on the India that we live in today. By presenting the seemingly paradoxical situation of a 'traditional' marriage in a 'modern' Indian, middle-class family, Karnad reveals how particular notions of wealth, well-being, sexual propriety, tradition, and modernity form the basis of middle-class society in contemporary India.
