As a reflection of the society, Diogo in his dramas has always highlighted social issues with a backdrop of family values and marriage institution. DHAAGO, yet another superbly scripted social drama fights for her identity and self respect of a woman in the society, in her house and in the sanctity of matrimony. From a director overtly obsessed with women-oriented issues: a woman - a homemaker, a woman - a home breaker, a woman - a pacemaker, a woman - a passionate healer, a woman – a role model, a woman of substance, et all, Diogo tries to explore and reveal the real woman on the stage.

A huge set designed by Ajit Salgaonkar, Light Effects from Nilesh Mahale, Lyrics penned by Luis Rodrigues, and soothing Background Music from Sai de Panjim are some of the salient features that accentuate the meticulous efforts from the producer Joaquim Alphonso to turn DHAAGO in a spellbinding entertainer.
