Synopsis : Lullaby is the story of a writer “Bodhisatwa” who is currently facing a writer's block. The publisher is on the verge of rejecting Bodhi's eighth novel since it in no way matches the brilliance of the previous successful ones. Despite Bodhi's defiance, he sends Sangsthita, a writer's block expert, to help him get over this hiatus. Regardless of Bodhi's reluctance, Sangsthita claims that she can help Bodhi understand his inner trauma and psychological issues that is behind the imbroglio. She starts invoking characters from his previous novels, as if to understand the arc of the characterizations through which Bodhi actually revealed his inner emotions around his close relatives and parents. Amongst denial and outbursts of defense, the discourse slowly penetrates through the tough emotional crust of Bodhi and reveals the silts of frustration, anger, illusion and an acute complicacy of his psychological balance around his mother all of which got characterized through various stories he had written. Being a graphologist, Sangsthita unveils these emotional layers and tries to nderstand how a complicated relationship with his mother had coloured his life. The chamber drama moves towards resolution of this trauma.
