JAMMU, Sept 10: Theatre group ‘Natrang’ here today staged new Hindi play ‘Parda Uthne Se Pehle’ written by Rajinder Kumar Sharma and directed by Neeraj Kant.
The play was based on the story of a man who is very fond of acting but his wife does not like that.
The play starts with Anil’s wife Sheela cursing her husband.
Meanwhile, Anil enters the house and Sheela gets angry at him but Anil praises her and says that now the heroine of his play is not Veena but Sheela because the heroine of his play has gone somewhere without informing him and his play is going to be performed the day after tomorrow.
Now Anil starts getting Sheela to rehearse. After Anil starts the rehearsal his talkative neighbor Makhan Lal enters and starts wasting his time.
Anil barely gets rid of him when his son Munnu comes to disturb. They send Munnu out with an excuse and start rehearsing the last scene in which Anil points Munnu’s toy pistol towards Sheela and starts speaking dialogues.
Meanwhile, Anil’s neighbours Pindidas and Subramaniam enter and after hearing the noise they think that Anil is going to shoot Sheela.
With great difficulty he explains to both of them that they were rehearsing for the play.
At last Veena, heroine of the play enters and Sheela tells her that Anil talks evil about Veena. Hearing all this, Veena leaves and Anil says that his play ended even before the curtain rose.
Natrang artists who performed in the play were Chirag Anand, Abhimanyu Choudhary, Sumit Bandaral, Mehak Singh, Palshin Dutta, Harsh Dogra, Nikhil Sharma, Chaitanya Shekhar and Sonali Sharma.
Lights and Music were operated by Neeraj Kant. The presentations were done by Mahikshit Singh and the show was coordinated by Mohd. Yaseen.
