“Haunted by secrets, bound by love” is the core theme of Zee Theatre’s latest teleplay ‘Peechha Karti Parchhaiyaan.’ Adapted by theatre, film, and music legend Illa Arun from Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen’s classic play ‘Ghosts’, ‘Peechha Karti Parchhaiyaan’ is directed for the stage by KK Raina who also stars in it.
