Brookville, NY: The Association of Indians in America (AIA), New York Chapter – Project India, is proud to present The Life of Gautama Buddha, an acclaimed stage production by Theater World, on July 27, 2025, at the Krasnoff Theater, Tilles Center for Performing Arts at LIU in Brookville, New York. 

This powerful theatrical performance is a creation of celebrated theater veterans Lushin Dubey and Bubbles Sabharwal, known for their thought-provoking and socially conscious work on stage. The play stars Siddh Makkar in the lead role and invites the audience on a compelling journey through the life of Gautama Buddha — from prince to spiritual guide — brought to life with captivating visuals, moving dialogue, and a universal message of peace and transformation. 

The event is being held to raise funds for Global Vikas Trust (GVT), an India-based NGO that works tirelessly to uplift rural communities by increasing farmers’ incomes through sustainable agriculture. Proceeds from the performance will directly benefit GVT’s grassroots efforts.
