  • Rajit Kapur, Shernaz Patel on Performing 'Love Letters' at Delhi's Old World Theatre Festival
    Oct, 08 2017 Rajit Kapur, Shernaz Patel on performing 'Love Letters' at Delhi's Old World Theatre Festival Fifteen plays. Ten days. The 2017 edition of the Old World Theatre Festival (OWTF) that kick-started on 6 October 2017 at the India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, has theatre lovers rejoicing at the return of some of the most prestigious productions on stage. In an exclusive chat with us, veteran thespians Rajit Kapur and Shernaz Patel spoke about one of their longest- running plays — Love Letters (directed by Rahul da Cunha), the relevance of handwritten letters in a digital world, and their memories of working with one of the stalwarts of Indian theatre, Tom Alter. Love At A Click Letters are passé. The ink doesn’t flow freely, and emotions are bunched up in 140 characters or less. Does a play on love letters have any meaning, then? For Rajit Kapur, love letters are precious. “Letters have become a novelty in today’s age. If someone receives a letter, it becomes really special and cherished by the person. The value of a letter has really gone up,” he says. Shernaz Patel too endorses the magic of handwritten letters and says, “I think love letters matter now more than ever. In an age where people make up and break up on SMS, it’s so important to remember the absolute beauty and power of words. We all love receiving cards and notes that we can keep forever... that don’t get erased with the click of a button.” Rajit and Shernaz perform Love Letters Oct, 08 2017 Love Letters Sans Letters AR Gurney’s epistolary play Love Letters, which premiered in 1988, has had several adaptations over the years — Javed Siddiqui’s Tumhari Amrita (starring Shabana Azmi and Farooq Sheikh, directed by Feroz Abbas Khan) being one of the most popular.

(The repetition of âœEk Dinâ in their respective Bengali titles, meaning âœone day,â augtments this sense of bookended symmetry.) In The Case Is Closed, a servant boyâ™s choice to move from his assigned sleeping space under the stairs into the kitchen for one night of warmth proves fatal, precipitating a moral crisis for his oblivious masters. Perhaps imposing order retroactively, Sen pronounced that three of his ambiguous, calculatedly inconclusive family dramasâ”And Quiet Rolls the Day, The Ruins, and Suddenly One Dayâ”comprise âœthe absence trilogy.â â˜Ek Din Pratidinâ™ (And Quiet Rolls the Dawn) (1979) undeniably establishes Senâ™s feminist credentials. The movie is a haunting tale of deep-rooted patriarchy ingrained in the Indian value system and questions the ethical standings of the viewers. â˜Ek Din Pratidinâ™ violently shakes traditional morality and compels people to think beyond the confines of their respective comfort zones. Some of his later ventures include such masterpieces as â˜Ek Din Achanakâ™ (Suddenly, One Day) (1989), â˜Mahaprithiviâ™ (World Within, World Without) (1991) and â˜Antareenâ™ (The Confined) (1993).

Und doch geht es weiter. Von Jahr zu Jahr wird der Anblick schmerzlicher, der Schmutz schmutziger, die Armut militanter, die Verzweiflung verzweifelter. Jedesmal, wenn ich nach Kalkutta zurückkehre, habe ich den Eindruck einer einschüchternden, höllischen Stadt. Unerlösbar, wahrscheinlich zum Untergang verurteilt" Dieses Zitat von James Cameron bildet den Epilog zu Mrinal Sens Kalkutta-Episode. "Es ist kein Dokumentarfilm. Ich versuche nicht, Lösungen zu finden. Es geht mir nicht darum, wie alt Kalkutta ist, oder wer es gegründet hat. Es ist ein Porträt im Sinne von 'Ich und meine Stadt'", sagt Sen nach Abschluß der Drehar­ beiten. Was er in seinem kaleidoskopischen Beitrag aufspürt, ist die Widersprüchlichkeit der Stadt, die Koexistenz der wider­ sprüchlichsten Emotionen. Unvorhersagbarkeit, Gefühllosigkeit, Heftigkeit der Gefühle, Grausamkeit, Zartheit. Eine Intensität, die vielleicht hilft, den unausweichlich scheinenden Untergang zu verhindern. Biofilmographie Mrinal Sen, geboren 1923 in Ost-Bengalen (heute Bangladesch). Nach einer Ausbildung zum Physiker begann er 1956 seine Laufbahn als Filmregisseur mit Root Bhore.
