Bollywood's famous casting director Mukesh Chhabra is all set to launch this year's edition of his theatre festival called ‘Khidkiyaan-Just Act’, presented by Just Act.

Talking about the same, an elated Mukesh Chhabra says, “I am very excited about this festival as it will provide a platform for our students who have completed their 3-month production-oriented acting workshop. These students will also get an opportunity to display their talent in the three plays which we are showcasing."

Adding further, "These students are very talented...They will gain immense exposure and this can help them carve a niche for themselves."

The festival kick-starts on 26th September with "Khidkiyaan Kala Samman" presented to Manoj Bajpayee for his achievements. This will be followed by the play KHOOBSURAT BALA, which has been directed by Imtiaz Ahmed.

ULATBAANSI, directed by Hemant Pandey will be staged on 27th September, followed by THE LAST SALUTE, directed by Arvind Gaur on 28th September. THE LAST SALUTE will also be presented by the maverick Mahesh Bhatt.

The last play CHAINPUR KI DASTAN by N.K. Pant will be held on 29th September.
