The Iqra University drama 'Marionette' was one of the outstanding plays. It was a silent play with light music. The hero fought all the odds and his role revolved around continued struggle with complete determination and concentration, finally succeeding to bring the desired change in the society in the best interest of humanity.'Qurbani' was the play of Bahuddin Zakariyah University. It was a story of a soldier who sacrificed his wishes for his young daughter, upholding the spirit of patriotism while setting an example of bravery and love with the motherland.
