JAMMU, June 27: The Samooh Theatre presented a play “Aakhri Hal” based on Mahesh Dattani’s “Final Solutions” on its foundation day.
The play was directed by Ravinder Sharma. The play is based on a communal issue in the backdrop of a town where curfew has imposed after breakthrough of violence in a Rath Yatra. And, when after two Muslim boys drop into one Hindu family to save their skin from the rioting mob, the events unfold in a dramatic way that bring face of to their respective religions in a high pitched controversy on the same old issue of communalism.
The exchange of ideas on the subject keep the situation diluting from tense to normal as when at the end the most important lines echo: “If you are willing to forget, we are willing to tolerate…”. The case of intolerance is prevalent in Jammu and Kashmir also and equilibrium has been maintained in this matter.
Ravinder Sharma, Director of the play, has made an attempt to execute the play in a format that goes well with the theatrical idioms produced on proscenium layout and is intermittently infused with some of the elementary incidents connected to both the regions of Jammu and Kashmir also.
The play though treads on the lines of hatred and intolerance towards each others’ religions, yet it musters an austere hope of transitioning of the ideological differences on religion getting thinned in an intense drama that ends into a convivial climax. The play is sufficiently a progression of the theological development of the outlook of Hindus and Muslims towards their respective religions which is given an affectionate silhouette by the youth in all genre cohorts.
The actors who performed in the play were Aditi Aryan, Suneedhi, Gautam, Avinash, Kanika Sharma, Neha Sharma and Kartik Singh.
