A Hindi play ‘Sher Par Sawa Sher’ was staged at Gandhi Bhavan Auditorium. Concluding the three-day theatre fest, the play was staged here on Sunday. Directed by a young theatre artist Sushrut Gupta, the play was wondrously performed by the artists of Ardhya Kala Samiti, Bhopal.
It is a story of a woodcutter who was only earning members of his family. The woodcutter believed in a very old saying ‘Sai Itna Dijiye Jitna Ja Me Kutumb Samaye’, so he used to trade his woods even if he gets the lowest cost of them. He used to cut the woods and sell them over the hand cart. He was a simple living man and could sell his woods for even a small amount of rice.
As the woodcutter was a very simple living and simple thinking man, he used to have disputes with his son who is an educated young boy. His son always remained against his father’s policies and principles.
In that village also lived an elite man names as Sher Singh. He was one of the powerful men of the village and used to trouble the villagers in some way or the other. One day he snatched the hand cart from the wood cutter. When the woodcutter went to him asking for his hand cart he laughed in evil tone and denied giving it back.
Then the woodcutter warns him saying that one day a man will bring down his ego. listening to this Sher Singh replied that no man till now has been able to do that.
