Natrang presents Hindi play 'Chote Bade' 11/29/2015 10:58:07 PM Early Times Report Jammu, Nov 29: Natrang presented a highly symbolic and hard hitting contemporary political satire 'Chote Bade' written by Mani Madhukar and directed by Balwant Thakur in its weekly theatre series Sunday Theatre. The apparent quotes and hidden undercurrent of the play were very sensitively touched by the director and thus were clearly received by the audience. The play "Chote Bade" depicts the story of two unemployed dejected youth, their aspirations, pains and frustrations. Rejected by the system, both are confronting with a mental turmoil in switching to illegal ways of survival. Living in fool's paradise at one time they find more comfort but gradually they realize of befooling themselves. The whole lawlessness, sense of insecurity, crime, scams, loot and deteriorating quality of life is attributed to the failure of democratic institutions in the country. The playwright has tried to expose the system in which there is no alternative left with the youth today to channelize their creative abilities in an environment where mediocrity is promoted at the cost of excellence. Being honest, excellent, and intelligent is a disqualification in today's order. They find that corrupt politicians and people in power have eaten up the vitals of the society and the talented aspiring youth of the day are left to be either a part of the corrupt system or to frustrate and suffer. Frauds, cheaters, and sycophants have their way to lead. The play is a big satire on today's power hungry people who are responsible for the poor state of affairs in India and indicates that the fast decline of faith in the system has reached to a blasting situation. It aspires and prompts the youth to fight it out and save the nation from the clutches of those who are responsible for this catastrophe before it deteriorates further. Masood Qadir as 'Chote' and Rajan Thalyal as 'Bade' exhibited their impressive acting skills. Juhi Singh was also appreciated in a special entry. Lights were designed by Ankush Lakhnotra and sound effects were executed by Shivam Singh. The show was coordinated by Sumeet Sharma.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
