Sydney is about to witness a theatrical masterpiece like never before!  Theatre enthusiasts and history buffs can look forward to a grand spectacle as the iconic Hindi play Jaanata Raja arrives in Sydney for a much-anticipated performance. Organized by E3 Events and Kalyani Transport, this legendary production, which brings to life the inspiring journey of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, will be performed in Hindi with English subtitles, allowing audiences from all backgrounds to experience the powerful story of one of India’s greatest warriors.

A blend of drama, history, and spectacle, Jaanata Raja is not just a play but a visual extravaganza featuring larger-than-life sets, traditional music, and powerful performances.

Why Jaanata Raja Is More Than Just a Play – A Must-Watch for the New Generation

The history of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is not just a tale of battles and victories—it is a story of courage, vision, justice, and leadership. In today’s fast-changing world, where values and heritage sometimes take a backseat, Jaanata Raja is a powerful reminder of the strength of integrity, resilience, and patriotism.

Originally conceptualized by historian and playwright Babasaheb Purandare, the play has been a cultural phenomenon in India and internationally, with successful performances in the UK and the US. Now, Sydney audiences will have the rare opportunity to witness this grand theatrical experience live on stage.

In a first for Sydney, this grand production will feature a cast of 160 artists, including 60 performers traveling from India and 100 local artists. Auditions are currently underway for local roles, offering a unique opportunity for Sydney-based actors to be part of this historic event.
