'Ghasiram Kotwal' to entertain Agri Business Meet delegates

Bhopal, May 23 (UNI) Popular play 'Ghasiram Kotwal' would be staged at Bharat Bhawan for the entertainment of more than 400 delegates, including foreigners, attending the 'Agri-Business Meet' here on May 25.

Agriculture experts and investors from different countries have been invited for this unique two-day meet, being hosted by the Madhya Pradesh government to attract investment in the agriculture sector.

Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan visited the United States and United Kingdom for 10 days early this month to attract investors to the state.

'Ghasiram Kotwal' is a famous play written by Vijay Tendulkar in 1973 in Marathi language and Jabbar Patel first directed the play in Pune, with the music of Mohan Upreiti. It is an all time favourite play and receives blasting response wherever it is staged in India.

The play incorporates folk traditions of Marathi stage like Lavni and Tamasha and is majestically coupled with traditional costumes and music.

'Ghasiram Kotwal' spuns around the story of transformation of a simple Kannauj's Brahmin Ghasiram into an unfeigned monster.

The storyline reflects the irony of Indian society where a Brahmin becomes an object of mockery for others and he decides to revenge his fellow people.
