The Centre for Brain and Mind launched Baatein on August 29, 2025. Baatein is CBM's flagship series envisioned as a space for open conversations, discussions and a continuing effort towards easing the acceptance of mental well-being. The first event under Baatein was the theatre showcase titled The Trial of Abdus Salam, performed by Nilanjan P Choundhury and team. This English play depicts a slice of the life of Abdus Salam, a theoretical physicist from Pakistan. The play was an enthralling, captivating and deeply thought provoking visual demonstration on the final days of the scientist. It brought to the fore how mental health gets affected by one's successes, life's highs/lows and personal beliefs.
