Vastraharan is thought to be the first Marathi-language play performed in the United States. It is largely in Malvani, a dialect of Marathi used in Konkan region.
A play within a play, pioneered by the famous Marathi performer Machindra Kambli, Vastraharan is about a group of actors attempting to stage the vastraharan episode from the Mahabharata. It begins with the performers rehearsing on the day of the show. One disaster follows another and it soon turns into a farcical situation. However, the play does ultimately get staged and how! However, there are no surprises in store in the play.
