Jammu, Mar 25: In its weekly theatre series ‘Sunday Theatre’, Natrang presented Hindustani adaptation of Balwant Gargi’s famous play ‘Kabab Mein Haddi’.
The play was directed by Neeraj Kant. The hilarious situations in the play made laughter irresistible for the audience. At the very outset Natrang director Balwant Thakur informed that Natrang is going to present Moliere’s famous comedy play ‘Bichoo’ directed by Sumeet Sharma on the occasion of World theatre day on tuesday, at General Zorawar Singh Auditorium, University of Jammu. The entry for the same has been kept open for all.
‘Kabab Mein Haddi’ as the name suggests is a story of one intruder between two lovers. Naseem and Safdar are two college friends. Naseem is in love with Jameela. Both are post-graduate students studying in a University. Jameela is putting-up in the girls hostel whereas Naseem and Safdar are living in a rented accommodation. Despite having engaged they hardly find any space and avenue to meet each other to share their feelings. Jameela’s hostel warden is very strict and hardly allows her to move out and this side, Naseem’s sticky friend Safdar hardly leaves him alone. Both have been shown making attempts to meet each other but in vain.
Mustering courage and pulling in all resources they plan their outing on Friendship day. The movement they step-out, Safdar makes his un-wanted entry and offers them to escort them throughout their outing. Both try to convince him that they can move on their own but this foolish friend is not ready to buy their arguments and forcefully accompanies them. The real comedy unveils here when Safdar spoils their every precious moment by intruding between them by creating funny situations. His intrusions irritate them and the moment he sees that they are irritated; he tries to be closer to them with the intention to ease out tension and conflict between them. Finally they get an opportunity to meet but the same is spoiled by their sincere friend.
This play was presented by the young actors. Rahul Singh as ‘Naseem’, Sunil Bhardwaj as ‘Safdar’ and Sajra Qadir as ‘Jameela’ played their respective characters with full confidence and professional ease.
