Theatre can be used as an effective medium to talk about social issues prevalent in the society. A new Marathi play titled KALA NAKALAT uses the stage to spread awareness about mentally challenged people and how to deal with them.


The play stems from the personal experiences of producer Joy Bhosle's life, She shares that her brother suffered from brain injury and since then she has been taking care of him and others like him. "What surprises me is the fact that we start to treat mentally-ill people differently. That shouldn't be the case. I don't treat my brother differently, and that makes all the difference." She also aims to donate part of the money earned from the production to the families of mentally challenged people.

KALA NAKALAT will be staged on Sunday, 29th May, 8.30pm, at Dinanath Mangeshkar Natya Griha Hall, Vile Parle East.

Mumbai Theatre Guide takes no responsibility for change in schedule.
