Makadachya Haati Champagne December 22, 2008

This two-act play written by Dr. Vivek Bele is a humorous comment made on the manipulative overtures of the political mind. The characters in the play are three roommates, of which one imagines he has found his love. The friends address each other by names they have invented on the basis of their individual personalities. So, here we have the uncouth and aggressive ‘Chaku (Knife)’, who brings home the woman he would like to marry to meet his friends ‘Pustak (Book)’ who like his name goes by the book and ‘Makad’ a T.V channel journalist who could move heaven and earth to find news. The lady herself is unabashed about changing her mind when it suits her, and moving on with life. With no answer ability to an erasable past she aptly renames herself ‘Pencil’. The story becomes a chain of witty battles between the four characters as Pustak and Chaku both woo Pencil while Makad eggs on both individually. Director: Girish Joshi. Writer : Dr. Vivek Bele.
