What drives someone to spend their entire life pretending to be other people? In the musty dak bungalows of post-Partition India, a boy with uncertain parentage-born in either July 1949 or August 1950, no one quite remembers-watched a performer with a painted face and felt the earth shift beneath his feet. That moment of enchantment would become a lifelong obsession. Growing up as the unremarkable third son in a family shadowed by infant deaths and Partition's lingering trauma, young Naseer found refuge in an interior world far more vivid than reality. His blind great-aunt Nani Baji spun bedtime tales of ogres and flying horses that taught him something crucial: you could escape an ordinary life by inhabiting extraordinary ones. When relatives whispered about his father's mysterious time tutoring an exiled Afghan king's daughter, or his mother's fading feudal lineage, these fragments became the raw material for a different kind of storytelling-the kind that happens on stage, where transformation isn't just fantasy but craft.
