Supported by J&K Academy of Art, Culture and Languages, Natrang started this series from Deewan-E-Aam, Mubarakh Mandi and then travelled with this highly socially relevant production to other parts of Jammu city including Rani Park, Nagrota Park, Diwan Mandir, Maharaja hari Singh Park and Municipal Park, Resham Ghar Colony, Jammu. Large crowds witnessed this stimulating engaging performance which was brought to the public to sanitize them about the menace of drugs. Each sequence of the play was repeatedly applauded by the audiences and appreciated the work of Natrang being done for the larger welfare of the society.
In a very effective manner this powerful play innovatively showcases how the Drug-menace is ruining the generations like a rapid fire, crippling the developing nations like India. The youth of the country, the largest energetic and productive human resource of the country, sometimes unknowingly slip into the trap of drug menace. The play was showcased in connection with Nukkad Theatre Festival organised by J&K Academy of Art, Culture and Languages.
The play was not based on one story-line but as an experiment Balwant Thakur has woven multiple stories in one theme focusing the spread of drug menace like a mesh, this taking the toll of the strongest workforce of the country. In a sequence a young boy is shown struggling for a good company after his passing of the school and entry in the college. He is isolated for not being the consumer of intoxications. All around him treat him like a child which really frustrates him and to prove that he has grown-up as a young man now, he finds the easiest way and demonstrates his coming of age by consuming a variety of intoxications. In another sequence a rural inhabitation particularly the men-folk is shown drowned in the menace of alcohol. All the miseries of the village like poverty, domestic violence, and ailments are attributed to the constant growth of consumption of alcohol in the village. In a sequence the daily routine of a villager is shown who consumes the whole of his daily earnings seeking alcohol. Being drunk completely he has looses his way home. By the time a local escorts him to his place where in the middle of the night this drunken man starts beating his sleeping wife and kids for not receiving him on his arrival. When the escort intervenes to save the poor lady and children, he is blamed for having ill intentions towards his wife. This fight further messes up when a drunken man after losing senses damages his household belongings as well. The play unfolds a series of incidents where people influenced by drugs, alcohol and other intoxications create hell for themselves as well as for others. Many precious lives are being charred in this fire of drug menace which is to be fought unitedly to bring them out of the mesh of drugs menace. Through this play Balwant Thakur has tried to make an appeal to save mankind from this dragon.
