"IF I have a superpower, I will ask rich people to set up theatres like Rangashankara in small towns in India," said Theatre exponent Arundhati Nag.

Arundathi is the founder of Rangashankara, one of Bengaluru's cherished theatre spaces, which recently completed its 20th anniversary.

She was in conversation with Kaveree Bamzai, noted author and journalist, at the roundtable with Devis titled-'Leading Change: What's the Superpower? held as part of the 29th edition of the Devi Awards instituted by The New Indian Express, here on Saturday.

Stating that the theatres need not always have to come out from places like New Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru and other big cities, Arundathi said it's time theatres are taken to 'B' and 'C' category cities.

Arundathi said theatres like Rangashankara set up in small towns can make a big difference to the place and added that it is her dream.
