| Natrang stages comeback resumes Sunday theatre with play Aab-E-Hayaat | | |  Early times Report
Jammu, Oct 18: Following all the SOPs and keeping social distancing intact, Natrang’s Sunday Theatre resumed today after a gap of around seven months at Natrang Studio Theatre with the performance of play ‘Aab-E-Hayaat’ which is based on the story of legendary writer Munshi Prem Chand and has been directed by Neeraj Kant. The same was streamed live for a larger audience. It is pertinent to mention here that during Covid-19 restrictions, Natrang had stopped all its operations which require physical presence of people and had initiated remarkable artistic ventures on its social media platforms which includes online celebration of World Theatre Day, commemoration of Natrang’s Foundation Day, Online theatre festival featuring 25 celebrated plays of Natrang and International Theatre Talk Show featuring 51 eminent theatre personalities of India and Abroad who shared their vision of theatre with global audience.
Addressing live from Johannesburg (South Africa) Director Natrang, Balwant Thakur complimented Natrang team for resuming its activities and further assured that slowly Natrang will start all its regular programmes including Fresher’s Theatre workshops and Children Theatre Club. He also advised all to maintain proper social distancing, and wear face masks.
The play ‘Aab-E-Hayaat’ opens at a very mysterious and weird laboratory of one ‘Dr. Ghosh’ who is famous for his out of the box inventions. He is shown very excited as he is going to do the biggest experiment of his life today and for this, he has invited four elderly people at his place who would volunteer to get the experiment done on them. All the four elderly people ‘Lala Kirorimal’, ‘Vikram Singh’, ‘Daya Ram’ and ‘Chanchal Kuwar’ have their pasts well linked to each other though they had committed many sins in their life but are fed up with the effect of age to their bodies and to their surprise, Dr. Ghosh tells them that he has got some wonder water which can reverse the effect of age and can make them young once again. What else they could dream of, but Dr. Ghosh puts one condition that they can drink as much water and can become as young as they want to but they have to promise that they will not commit all those sins and mistakes which they have done in their youth, to which they readily agreed.
A miracle happened, after drinking the wonder water they all turned young but instantly forgot their promise and again started to plot their usual malpractices, they even ridiculed ‘Dr. Ghosh’. But to their surprise and dismay, the wonder water was just an intoxication whose effect lasts as fast as it captures the senses. Though the mirage ends and they all become old once again justifying Doctor’s experiment that we don’t leave our instincts no matter how much promises we make.
Gopi Sharma as ‘Dr. Ghosh’ was the life line of the play, he was equally supported by Kuldeep Angral as ‘Lala Kirorimal’, Aadesh Dhar as ‘Thakur Vikram Singh’, Brijesh Avtar Sharma as ‘Daya Ram’ and Kananpreet Kaur as ‘Chanchal Kunwar’. The lights were operated by Neeraj Kant and the sound was looked after by Aarti Devi. The show was coordinated by Mohd. Yaseen and the presentations were done by Chirag Anand.
