‘Inna Ki Aawaz’ , a political satire based in an imaginary country where the king is a tyrant, was staged at Punjab Natshala. Inna is a common man employed in the construction of a new palace for the king. He has got a melodious voice, all the workers, masons gather around him to listen to his magical singing. He becomes so popular amongst the lower strata of the kingdom that king feels threatened by him.

The play deals with the fact that individual have hidden tendencies both at political and social level. How an individual overplays the tricks to save his power, how important it becomes for him to suppress the voice of opposition. The effective plan is not to finish the existence but to create such a situation where these voices are diverted and never find their way out.

It resembles a lot with contemporary political scenario where one individual’s supremacy includes the opposition to play safe, and after its utilisation, is disposed of. Secondly, it directs to the tendency of an individual, who after attaining one certain position forgets his own landscape and gets addicted to the facilities provided. And this uncertainty leaves him somewhere near nowhere.
