In a video shared by Mahesh Bhatt, in which he’s seen accepting the proposal, he says, "On January 12, 2017, I have a date with the people of Delhi. I am coming to

Hans Raj College

with my favourite play, 'The Last Salute – the tale of Muntadhar Al Zaidi', the famous journalist who hurled his shoe at

George W Bush

. Come, watch this play."

Han Raj’s acting principal,

Rama Sharma

, tells us, "Yes, he (Mahesh Bhatt) is coming to Hans Raj on January 12, and we are really excited about it. This will also be the first time he’ll be performing the play at DU. It is a great play, and I don’t think many of us have seen it before. This would be a milestone for us, as we’ll get a chance to watch the play with Mahesh Bhatt."
