Purushottam

Purushottam karandak.. Elims over... Finals next week ... The BIGGEST inter collegiate one act play competition. AND ME IN BANGALORE.... Missing Purushottam a hellova lot...Pune is home to a huge number of comepetitions, however Purushottam still remains the most revered... Why? The answer cannot be written down.. It is what you experience while in the hall of Bharat Natya Mandir during, before and after the show.. The shouting, jeering and cheering.. the intense rivalry between teams.. and of course the extermely talented people performing thought provocing plays. for me the magic of purushottam would begin from even befor the play practice starts. selecting the script, casting the charaters (the lack of girls in our college to cast) and discussions over infinite cups of chai. And when the practice starts, again the fights with team mates, bunking lectures for practice and taking contributions from everyone for the play. The sweat that goes in behind staging the play, the god-only knows-how many hours of practice... all these and many more reasons why Purushottam is Purushottam.. May the best team win...
