Director:

Original Story:
Santosh Shintre

Dramatisation:
Om Bhutkar

Synopsis:

Today market rules the society and us. Supply is provided according to whatever the demand is. This play is a story of such kind of institute which gives training to thoughtless and irrational thugs. This idea of setting such kind of institute is of Professor Diwakar. This story starts from conceptualisation of the institute to how the whole game changes and hits back badly on Professor Diwakar and the Shikshan Chudamani. This play sarcastically and in a very entertaining way tries to comment on the important issues of unemployment, poverty, the commercialisation of educational systems in our society.

Director's Note:

This black comedy brings forth an ugly side of our society - illiteracy, unemployment and poverty. Though hilarious, it does make one think about the cosy life he/ she is living. It made me introspect about the values of the society i am living in, and more pointedly about my morals. The fact that the protagonist of this play wishes to 'educate' students to become professional goons is believable, says a lot.
This play jolted me to reality and made me realize that apart from our flashy, cosmopolitan lives, lies a very very dark world..
