Humare Ram: Ambience Sets a New Benchmark in Theatre
About a hundred students staged Humare Ram in two shows at the Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi, on 28 October 2026.
Transcending the conventions of a school production, Ambience Public School presented Humare Ram, a theatrical spectacle celebrating the power of storytelling, artistic excellence and the perennial relevance of timeless wisdom. Staged in two shows on 28 October 2026 at the Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi, the production featured two different casts of student performers across the two presentations, with about a hundred students taking part.
Rooted in the Ramayana, the school's adaptation read the epic through a contemporary lens, drawing out the interplay between ego and humility, ambition and righteousness, power and responsibility. It took its inspiration from the acclaimed production Humare Ram, which has completed over 500 shows worldwide and features Mr Rahull R. Buchhar as Shri Ram.
The school worked with Velvet Curtain Theatre, co-founded by Ms Nishtha Paliwal Tomar and Mr Manmeet Singh Taneja, on a theatrical journey that nurtured the students' acting, creativity, confidence and collaborative spirit, and placed young performers centre stage in genuinely demanding roles.
The programme commenced with the lighting of the lamp by the chief guest Mr Raj Singh Gehlot, Chairman of the Ambience Group, with Mrs Sheela Gehlot, Co-Chairperson, Mrs Himani Asija, Principal, Mr Rudrasen Sindhu, Mr Rajpal, Mr Ramesh Shah and Mr Rahull R. Buchhar, Founder of Felicity Theatre.
Mrs Himani Asija, Principal, welcomed the gathering and underscored the importance of giving students platforms that nurture creativity, confidence and holistic development. She was supported by Vice Principals Dr Aditi Mukul Gehlot and Ms Sangita Chadha, along with Headmistress Mrs Geeta Choudhary.
In recognition of the students' dedication, Mr Raj Singh Gehlot announced a cash award of ₹5,100 for each participating student, along with an award of ₹5 lakh for the Velvet Curtain team. The programme concluded with a vote of thanks by Mr Rahull R. Buchhar, who spoke of the importance of preserving and promoting Hindi and of keeping its cultural legacy alive for future generations.
