| Natrang stages Manto's play "Eid Card" | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Sept 20: A well designed presentation of Saadat Hassan Manto's 'Eid Card' was featured in Natrang Sunday Theatre Series here today at Natrang Studio Theatre Kachi Chawni. The play was directed by Neeraj Kant. The values and concerns which were contained in the plot of the play and the timing of its performance near Eid made the experience very real for the audience.
The story of the play begins in a working room of one Masood, who is busy doing typing as this is the source of his income. He is surprised to see that everyone who visits his place is excited about buying Eid Card and send the same to dear ones to greet them on Eid. He finds it virtual as there is no match of wishing Eid in person which carries true regards and warmth. But others don't find his logic valid. They are all set to send the Eid greeting cards to their brothers, sisters, beloved and relatives. One reason of Masood's not being excited about sending greeting cards was that he has no closed one to whom he feels like sending the card and the same time he is not expecting the same from anyone.
Influenced by others at-last, on getting two greetings cards free from one of the visitors at his place, Masood is also tempted to send one card to one office childhood friend, but he sends it unaddressed, which is returned back to him by the postman. Being skeptical about not receiving any card from anyone, he himself posts a card at his own address so that he may also sense the happiness of receiving an Eid Card.
Natrang young artists who acted in the play included Hitanshu Jinsi, Pallavi Mathur, Ajay Singh, Yash Pal Manhas and Vishal Sharma. |
