STATE TIMES NEWS

JAMMU: Natrang presented a scintillating performance of the play ‘Zameen Ka Sawaal’ in Hindi which was written by Partap Sehgal and directed by Neeraj Kant. The play carried a hard hitting satire on the socio-political situation and carried a very relevant message which was appreciated by the audience.
The play ‘Zameen Ka Sawaal’ opens in a trial room where a high level committee is enquiring about a very grim incident where five people at different locations were killed by sending letter-bombs. ‘Ranganathan’ a very senior scientist is accused of master-minding the crime as all the evidence were against him. Initially he does not admit having involved in the crime but when given a false news that his only son is also killed in the same manner, he breaks and with a deep agony in the heart, he admits his crime which he had committed to take revenge from all those who were responsible for hurdles in his growth and promotion. Despite being the most outstanding and deserving scientist having dedicated entire life in research, he was denied his due recognition and promotion as it was granted to someone else who had a close proximity with the political hierarchy. This renders a harsh frustration in his mind, he asserts that only hard work and ability will take you nowhere in this system, where corruption and favouritism are deep-rooted. The play very brilliantly says that those who do not have approach and recommendation may not be given higher positions but it does not mean that they are not talented enough.
Natrang’s artists who performed in the play included Brijesh Avtar Sharma, Abhinav Sharma, Mahikshit Singh, Sushant Singh Charak, Chirag Anand, Kushal Bhat and Kuldeep Angral. The lights of the play were designed and executed by Neeraj Kant and the show was coordinated by Mohd. Yaseen.
