| Natrang stages 'Jonk' in its Sunday Theatre Series | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Mar 14: 'Jonk', a famous Hindi comedy play written by Upender Nath 'Ashk' & directed by Sumeet Sharma was staged here at Natrang Studio Theatre in its Sunday Theatre Series. The classical comedy was presented in such a manner that audience could not resist laughter on every punch. Play 'Jonk' is based on the story of an intruder, who disturbs the life and the quality time of a newly wed Professor. Looking at their miserable condition, Professor's friend plans a theatrical act for them to throw this unwanted guest out of their home.
He advises them to leave the house pretending to go to in-laws' place to another city thus the guest would be forced to look for some other place. While they are planning all this, the unwanted guest enters. Despite enacting the planned drama, the sticky man is not ready to move out of their place and on the contrary takes the charge of their kitchen and treats them with delicious dishes. Finally Professor declares to leave for a distant place, with the excuse that his wife is not well, but the unwanted guest doesn't take the leave and carries the baggage of the Professor to his next destination. A traditional comedy set in a one act style was a big challenge for the actors to maintain its pace. But young actors demonstrated their maturity & gave excellent performance. Mohit Sharma as 'Professor' and Bela Thappa as 'Kamla' were successful in portraying their agony and frustration created by an intruder in their life. Pankush Verma as the helping friend was equally good in his role. The role of unwanted guest, 'Banwari Lal' was played by Rohit Verma who reflected praiseworthy histrionics. Rahul Singh played the role of the 'Neighbour' while he also operated the lights. Anita Dhar did the presentation & the show was coordinated by Mohammad Yaseen.
