Boom Shankar

After a successful outing as part of First World Problems 2.0, with Prayas Theatre & Agaram Productions, Aman Bajaj and Bala Murali Shingade return with a full-length show of Boom Shankar.

Shankar Shinde is a star graduate of BDSM (Bomb Defusal School of Manukau). However, being the first Indian Kiwi bomb defusal graduate from the prestigious institution comes with its own pressures.

Join Shankar in a journey that explores love, life, and the importance of selecting the right type of yoghurt. He is forced to tap into all his training, unconventional coping mechanisms, divine intervention and sheer dumb luck as he manoeuvres through his high-pressure job of deactivating explosives.
