JAMMU, Nov 20: ‘Do Kalakaar’, a play in Hindi written by Bhagwati Charan Verma and directed by Balwant Thakur was staged here today at Natrang Studio in Sunday Theatre Series. A very sensitive and relevant message was presented in the play which was coated with fun and humour.
In the play, ‘Churamani’ and ‘Martand’ are two friends both are artists (one poet and another painter) they had once aspired to rule the Bollywood with their respective creative strengths. The poet had dreamt of becoming the top Hindi Film lyricist and the painter had set a goal for himself to become the most sought after art director of the tinsel town. But destiny lands them in a situation where both are forced to use their creative energies in creating situations and cooking stories just to escape the harassment of their landlord who has not been paid the rentals of a dingy room for the last six months. The playwright has beautifully portrayed the tragic fate of the creative people who are expected to create magic and electrifying artistic experience through their unlimited creative energies are shown wasting their creativity just to ensure survival.
Natrang actors who acted in the play included Mohit Kaul, Gautam Kumar, Yash Manhas, Gautam Sharma, Kaushal Manhas. Lights were operated by Neeraj Kant whereas Shivam Singh scored the music.
