Sazaa (1893) | विविधा (Vividha) | Based on Rabindranath Tagore's Stories

Vividha stages Tagore's 1893 story Shasti, in which a killing inside a poor household is pinned, with the family's agreement, on the wrong woman. The half hour stays with the cost of a lie told to keep a brother out of the dock.

Why it's free: Prasar Bharati Archives is India's public broadcaster's own channel, publishing the Doordarshan recordings it holds and licenses.
