 Gaud was outstanding Garhwali theatre activist of Delhi who wrote, directed many Garhwali dramas and performed in many dramas.

               Parashar also write Garhwali satire. There are tens of satires created by Gaud published in offline or online medium.

Memu nit Taim (2010):  The mother wishes that as per custom her daughter comes to her Mayka. The daughter does not pay attention. The satire is mild attack on changing customs.

Bada bado Kam- Gaud creates satire on story line but can’t be called story. Nobody was interested in Bhajram till he becomes gram Pradhan (Village councilor). When a person becomes big personality blames follow.  However, blame by a woman was so explosive that Bhajram don’t come out publicly.

Netaon ki Pachhyan- this satire exposes the reality of Uttarakhandi political leaders
