Amar Photo Studio- A Play With Substance

This is a very inventive play (in Marathi) that I saw yesterday. Proof? Here it is, clicked by Amey Wagh, a key actor, at the end of it. We are at the left end, first row. I am second from left.

Did I say inventive? I will say it again. It had elements of the classics (V. Shantaram appears as a character, making one of his films), mid-70s ( a character played by Parna Pethe dances to the song Mehbooba, Mehbooba, from Sholay), and today's selfie-obsessed generation that is trying to define love in the time of breakups.

Brilliantly cast and directed, it's a must-watch in my view. Nipun Dharmadhikari, the director, proves he is nipun with many things- the time travel, the representative characters from each age group, and the handling of the story and the dialogues, were all of a level that was impressive. Participative elements, with the heroine and hero both coming into the aisle and pulling in audiences, aded zing to the proceeding. The humour is ROFL.

Amey Wagh, and some others too, played multiple characters, not easy to do in quick succession. Hats off!
