Jammu, Mar 9: In its regular Weekly Theatre Series Sunday Theatre, which is in its 10th year, Natrang staged a Hindi comedy play, Prem Visheshagya written by Hari Shanker Parsai & directed by Balwant Thakur at its Studio Theatre at Kachi Chawni.
The topic of the play tickled the audience as the situational comedy in the play was very well executed by the artists and it was very creatively presented before the audience.
The story of the play ‘Prem Visheshagya’ revolves around a love guru who has opened a clinic to cater to the growing demand of relationship conflicts. Claiming himself to be the last destination of all broken hearts, he confronts with such complicated cases that he himself gets trapped into similar complications.
The dramatic turn comes in the play when a young girl comes to his clinic to get rid of the modern ‘Majnu’ who has sacrificed everything for her but the girl feels that excess of everything is bad. In the process of treating the girl, the love Guru falls in her love, thus creating yet another comic situation. Who will treat if the doctor himself becomes the patient? Other than making us laugh, the play conveys very strong massage to the society also, particularly to the youth, who is required to concentrate more on career rather than flying high on imaginative, unreal and dreamy clouds of what we term as infatuation.
Ashwani Bali as ‘Doctor’, Sakshi Prakash as ‘Patient’, Namit Dubey as ‘Prane Dass’, Vanshika Gupta as ‘Ragini’, Rajan Thakyal as ‘Father’ and Syed Mudassar as ‘Attendant’ did justice to their respective roles. Lights were operated by Neeraj Kant & the Sets were designed by Mohd. Yaseen. Sajra Qadir did the presentation & the show was coordinated by Sumeet Sharma.
