Ahuja champions multi perspective storytelling
Ahuja created Bias Check Theatre to spotlight multi-perspective storytelling.
He believes both tech and theater thrive on creativity and teamwork: In both fields, one must think creatively to solve problems and work with others to bring ideas to fruition.
He's aiming for honest, relatable performances that make Manto's work feel relevant today.
