“Notes on Chai” by Jyoti Dogra (we remember her from “Hyderabad Blues 2”) is based on small talk that we all indulge in – with (or without) chai. It’s a soliloquy theatrical production where Dogra slips in and out of various characters. These characters do not make earth shattering revelations. They are like you and me – office goers, house wives, old ladies and so on. They just speak with us, as we do with people we randomly meet on the stairs, in the market, at the railway station, during a party and so on. They pass comments about weight loss, share secrets about their personal lives, talk sex (!) or keep yapping about their love for chai!
