"It's a humble beginning towards a better folk culture and there are still many miles to go,"says Kiran Agashe of Samanvay, first prize winner of Vodafone Rangasangeet, a one-act play competition, which was held at Yashwant Rao Chavan Auditorium in Kothrud on Sunday. The event was organised by Theatre Academy. City-based Maharashtra Cultural Centre was the first runner-up, while the Kalapini form Talegaon was declared second runner-up. A fourth prize was also given to Samvedna Parivar, a Mumbai-based organisation.
The Marathi musical one-act play competition was conceptualised to provide a platform for upcoming talent in theatre across Maharashtra and Goa. "The competition was tough despite low participation. We showcased the fresh one-act play which was based on music instinct of a jail inmate and surely it was different from the regular musical Marathi plays," says Anjali Karahkar of Kalapini (Talegaon). Held at Yashwant Rao Chavan Auditorium in Kothrud, Pune, Kirkire, B.P Singh (CEO, Vodafone Maharashtra & Goa} and Madhuri Purandhare (Member of theatre Academy) presented the winners with the trophy. "Judging such a deft bunch of theatre artistes is challenging and tough. We should promote this art form ," said Kirkire.
