In fact if my memory serves me right the play was supposed to be held on 1st June in our Madurai. But later it got cancelled. He had badly wanted to do Tippu Sultan but it never materialised.
After this no plays were staged except for some shows which he did for cyclone relief fund in Dec 1977- Jan 1978.
