The humorous and musical performance revolves around a Thakur (landlord) who frequently gets upset and makes irrational decisions. Being the ruler of several villages, everyone is compelled to follow his orders. This time, the Thakur commands that all the water-filled wells in the village be filled with sand, causing great distress among the villagers.
This play serves as a satirical and critical commentary on various societal issues, where the audience, while laughing, absorbs serious messages. Thakur Ka Roothna is an example of how folk theater, such as Swang, can entertain while simultaneously educating and raising awareness in society.
