Delhi Jazz festival 2012 ended last Sunday at Nehru Park, New Delhi, India

Delhi Jazz Festival 2012 was celebrated at Nehru Park in New Delhi for 3 days, which started on last Friday and ended on Sunday. (16th March- 18th March, 2012). I also thought of visiting it for some time on second day which was off for me from office. I reached the place at 6:30 pm which was time for beginning of the evening on second day of Delhi Jazz Festival 2012. At first a local band from Delhi University performed and then next one was from Georgia. Overall environment around the place was awesome and I am still a non-Jazz fellow :) ... Will surely plan to visit Delhi Jazz Festival 2013 to really understand this form of music !

Sunil Upadhyay - One of the fine actors of National School of Drama, Delhi, INDIA

This photograph was clicked during one of the recent plays by Ranjit Kapoor. It was PANCHLIGHT, a story about a bihar village with no light and people want to a have a panchlight in their village. Story starts with a love story where boy meets the girl in fields and they had some signals to indicate the presence to each other.

Sunil Upadhyay dictated various scenes from this play in a very interesting way... I have been watching his plays for last three years and a huge fan of this person. Although it's really difficult to compare actors of NSD Repretory with other.

'The Gift' story of 'Chekhov ki Duniya' play by Ranjeet Kapoor

This week NSD Repertory was performing 'Chekhov ki Duniya', directed by famous Director Ranjeet Kapoor. This play is based on various stories of Chekhov. Staging of the Hindi play titled 'Chekhov Ki Duniya' directed by Ranjit Kapoor. Chekhov Ki Duniya is a collection of six short stories by Chekhov. 'Cheenk' is one of the six stories shown in this play and it's filled with irony. It includes The Sneezer, who cannot apologize enough to a blustering general for splattering a sneeze on his head during one of the play they went for. 'Dooba Hua Aadmi' is the story of a man who earns by 'drowning.' Shikari shows a man-about-town using a husband as the conduit for his attempted seduction of the man's new bride... There are few more where an assistant of a dentist want to become a doctor and trying to pull tooth of church-father... Most of the stories were presented in very interesting way and lot of stuff to laugh !!

Mumbai to Dilli - A Standup Comedy at IHC, Delhi

Last Sunday a stand up comedy show happened at India Habitat Center, Delhi !!! It was adult show and performers reached the extreme. Given an option, I will prefer to attend their show again but alone or with some of my college friends only. And of course, I can't recommend to anyone. And I liked only two of these performers.

SUMMER THEATRE FESTIVAL 2011 ended with KAFKA !!!

Recently I have been following the great Indian Theatre event in Delhi. This happened at National School of Drama and known as SUMMER THEATRE FESTIVAL 2011 !!! This festival started in May month of 2011 and ended in June with last play as 'Kafka - Ek Adhyay'.

I also invited two of my friends to join for this play and I felt bad when I realized that it was very serious play. Most of the times, it's always better to watch comedy play to start. Or at least something which is not very serious. Kafka was exactly opposite :) Now I have committed to take them for some good comedy play. But I really enjoyed the whole Summer Theatre Festival 2011 and watched all the plays this time. My Favorite from all the plays is 'Jaat hi Poocho Sadhu Ki' and 'begum ka takia' was the play which I watched third time.
