Marking the fourth day of 8th Rang Triveni Natya Samaroh on Wednesday, two Hindi plays Gumshuda Naak and Buddhu Kanta were performed sponteneously at Shaheed Bhavan.

Gumshuda Naak was directed by Manoj Mishra and was presented by the artists of Rang Anubhav, Lucknow.

It is a wonderful mysterious story, after the story was written in the story writing, unprecedented changes were seen in the creation world.

The character Pillu the Barber wakes up from sleep on the morning of 1 April to eat bread at the breakfast table, leaving a nose bleed, says Pillu's wife. Pillu hides from the people and throws the severed nose into the river. On the other hand, the President of Sansati Samuddhi wakes up from sleep in the morning when he looks in the mirror, there is a square pit in his face at the place of nose, he is very worried.

Wearing a mask tied to the mouth, they go out to find their nose, their nose comes out in the form of human characters and positions. But every time the nose refuses to recognize them. After a long day of searching, he returns home disappointed and fell asleep. When he wakes up again in the morning, his nose is back in its place, the antics of the actors and the drama have been composed in the Indian Nat tradition style, with a mixture of situations filled with humor and satire. The ending of the play is happy.

Buddhu Ka kanta was directed by Vishal Acharya and was performed by Saghan Society, Bhopal.

This story was written by Chandradhar Sharma Guleri in the year 1914. Raghunath's father works in a bank in Agra, away from his native village and his wife lives in Agra. Apart from the stereotypes and conservatism of the then society, he is in favor of civilized modern ideas. He is under pressure to get his son Raghunath married soon.

On the other hand, his nineteen-year-old son Raghunath is studying in boarding in Prayag. Raghunath had never been concerned with any woman except his mother in his life. In such a situation, when Raghunath has to reach the village for marriage after his examination, he met Bhagwanti under interesting circumstances. In this folk behavior, how does Buddha Raghunath get married and then the circumstances under which he realizes love.

The hallmark of the humorous satire of this event is Buddhu Ka Kanta, in which the author has depicted both the good and bad aspects of that period in a very easy way in front of us with his writing skills.
