Early Times Report

Jammu, Nov 17: Balwant Thakur’s hard hitting Hindi play ‘JAAL’ staged here today at Rani Park, Jammu under the direction of Neeraj Kant. In a very effective manner this powerful play innovatively showcases how the Drug-menace is ruining the generations like a rapid fire, crippling the highly energetic human resource of developing nations like India. The youth of India, the most influential and the productive human resource of the country, sometimes unknowingly slips into the suicidal trap of drug menace.
The play ‘Jaal’ was not based on any one story-line but as an experiment Balwant Thakur has woven multiple stories in one theme focusing the spread of drug menace like a mesh, this taking the toll of the strongest workforce of the country. Jammu is no exception. We are a witness to lots of youth losing lives. In a sequence a young boy is shown struggling for a good company after his passing of the school and entry in the college. He is isolated for not being the consumer of intoxications. All around him treat him like a child which really frustrates him and to prove that he has grown-up as a young man now, he finds the easiest way and demonstrates his coming of age by consuming a variety of intoxications. In another sequence a rural inhabitation particularly the men-folk are shown drowned in the menace of alcohol. All the miseries of the village like poverty, domestic violence, and other ailments are attributed to the constant growth of consumption of alcohol in the village. In a sequence the daily routine of a villager is shown who consumes the whole of his daily earnings in alcohol. Being drunk completely he has looses his way home.
By the time a local escorts him to his place where in the middle of the night this drunken man starts beating his sleeping wife and kids for not receiving him on his arrival. When the escort intervenes to save the poor lady and children, he is blamed for having malicious intentions towards his wife. This fight further messes up when a drunken man after losing senses damages his household belongings as well. The play unfolds a series of incidents where people influenced by drugs, alcohol and other intoxications create hell for themselves as well as for others.
Many precious lives are being charred in this fire of the growing drug menace which is to be fought unitedly to bring them out of the mesh of drugs menace. Through this play Balwant Thakur has tried to make an appeal to save mankind from this dragon who is extending its constituency day by day.
Actors who outshined in their respective performances and left an impact of their acting included Neeraj Kant, Aadesh Dhar, Gopi SharmaVandana Thakur, Kartik Kumar, Aryan Sharma and Vishal Sharma. The show was ably conducted by Brijesh Avtar Sharma and coordinated by Mohd. Yaseen .
