‘Driven, Passionate and Very Lost’ A Monologue Varoon P. Anand.

- Shruti Kapur Malhotra

The first time I met Varoon, he made me laugh in his very first sentence, he made me sad and he made me think. His ability to have an audience in splits of laughter along with his suicidal tendencies that still come up every now and then was intriguing and endearing. We began talking about his theatre performances, his love for cinema, the life he has lived in umpteen cities and his improv acts. To give a different twist to the article form I thought why not innovate with an improv exercise where I will throw words at Varoon and he will elaborate, or not…

So here goes:
