Q.1. Kanji Virudh Kanji is a Gujarati Play by Bhavesh Mandalia where the main plotline revolves around the misunderstood concept of religion and the struggles of the protagonist to make amends with it. X was very inspired after watching the play and decided to adopt it as a full-fledged movie released in 2013 as well as playing a lead role in the highly successful play "Krishan vs Kanhaiyaa".



Identify X whose name will be heard even more often with plays and "Drama" now, due to recent developments.
