Following in the footsteps
of his grandfather Bachu Sampat, producer at INT (Indian National Theatre) and
both his parents Paresh and Swaroop Rawal, Aditya Rawal is all set to relish
his share of the spotlight and mother Swaroop Sampat is more than happy. “Paresh
and I always knew that Aditya will make a skilled writer and we are delighted
that he has decided to launch as a play wright and not a screen writer”. Paresh
adds that more than a father he is excited as an actor that his son has now
become a full fledged writer.

story of beauty and betrrayal, a story of doom and dynasty.
