Natrang stages Hindi play "Kavita Ka Chakkar" 2/23/2015 12:21:46 AM Early Times Report JAMMU, Feb 22: This Sunday witnessed the performance of 'Kavita Ka Chakkar', a play in Hindi written by Devraj Dinesh and directed by Neeraj Kant at Natrang Studio Theatre in its weekly theatre series 'Sunday Theatre'. The play makes us aware about the constant struggle which artists have to undergo to pursue their passion and give expression to their feelings. In the play 'Kavita Ka Chakkar' tragedy of a poet has been depicted in such a comic manner that it prompts the spectators to laugh on his tragic fate. It is rarely seen in theatre that a tragedy is woven in a comedy manner. The audience lived through with a heavy heart the creative frustrations of a poor poet but had to laugh the way he reacted to his environment. 'Champa Lal'- a businessman by profession is obsessed with the art of poetry writing. All-time he confronts with adverse environment and things become sickening for him when he hardly finds a moment to complete his poem. The passion for the poetry reaches to such a level that he leaves his business establishment and locks himself in a room to have a suitable environment for the creation of a creative mood. This act surprises his wife who never saw him leaving his business till late hours of night. She smells some foul play and start cursing on him. By the time he is able to convince his wife, a friend makes an unwanted entry and further distracts his creative mood and focus on poetry. He struggles a lot to convenience everyone to understand the agony of a creative mind and the process of its churning. How much effort, time and energy goes in the creation of a poem unfortunately no one around him is able to appreciate and realize. This most misunderstood person hits his head around but hardly finds anyone who could understand the pain, miseries and sufferings of a creative creation. For him no one would starve for lands where hearts have been softened by poetry and prose. In his quest for the creation of single stanza in a poem he loses his business, wife, and friends and ironically finds no one to appreciate his art of poetry. The play though in a funny style portrayed the harsh reality behind the creation of creative works. Our country in particular may take centuries to reach to level when we'll have thrust for creativity and understanding for the arts and literature. Finally when it becomes extremely difficult for him write, he starts hitting his head and says that this world is not meant for creative people.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
