A two day theatre festival would begin at Antrang Hall Bharat Bhavan from July 31. The theatre festival is being organised by Nandikini theatre group, Bhopal.
The festival would begin with the Hindi play Zindagi- Ek Junoon that would be staged on the opening day of the festival. The festival would conclude with a hit play by a noted and distinguished director of the city KG Trivedi Bhookh Aag Hai. The first play Zindagi- Ek Junoon deals with the ups and downs in the life of a common family. It deals with the serious situations a person can go through in his lifetime. The play has tried to express the meaning of life that includes all the emotions like happiness, sadness, confusions and much more.
Another play Bhookh Aag Hai surrounds the curiosity of a teenage girl, who has been asked to write an essay on ‘hunger’. Being from a rich family, the girl is unable to understand what actually the ‘Bhook’ is. The play is rift is between those who cannot understand hunger and those who cannot describe it. He further said that the audiences would also think upon the fact that what is hunger and this is the essence of the play. Bhookh Aag Hai was recently performed at Iftekhar Theatre Festival.
