In ‘Lekhak’, a creative person is shown engaged in the process of creating and writing a play. He is living through a different kind of creative tension. Lot of things are happening, emerging and storming in his mind and is under utter stress.
By the time he reaches to a situation of putting down something on paper he is distracted by the visitors to him.

The play showcases the struggle of a creative person, the effort and the amount of energy he puts in evolving a creative piece.
Without realizing and acknowledging his creative tensions everyone visiting to him just load him with their own problems. In the absence congenial environment his creativity gets victimized.
On being distracted and disturbed time and again he cries that he has lost every thing, people around him have taken away every thing from him.
