New Delhi:
On Thursday, on the occasion of World Theater Day, actress Pallavi Joshi recalled her memories and said that in Maharashtra, the theater has survived as it is easy to buy tickets.
“The whole mathematics of theater is very different. The theater has survived in Maharashtra as it is easy on the pocket to buy tickets. When the ticket prices are low, the collection is low, which means that the share of the money of actors and the margin of producers’ benefits is also in the lower side. It is a sad condition of cases,” Pallavi said.
He said that he gets the score of gross underpaid actors yet very talented in theater.
“Their value except any drama is invaluable. Yet it rarely translates into their salary. Large stars still manage to make some money, but the rest of them still need to be dependent on a regular job, and consider the theater as a hobby.”
World Theater Day was launched in 1961 by the International Theater Institute. Various national and international theater programs are organized to mark the occasion.
The actress credits her directors from the theater days to honor her skills.
“A lot of memories from the theater days. It would not be wrong to say that I was honored by the best directors during my theater days. I was lucky to work with Mavric directors like Arvind Deshpande, Dilip Kolhatkar and Amol Palekar.”
He said that Dilip Kolhatkar apprised him of “strength as an actor”.
“Arvind Deshpande taught me the magic of interpretation. While Amol Palekar taught me the most invaluable lesson.” What not to do. “
Talking about my favorite plays, he said: “I don’t think I can really say which one was my favorite, but I think I was playing Kinnie as an actor ProlificVijay Tendulkar’s adaptation of Mohan Rakesh’s famous Hindi play of Marathi Aadhe adhure,
He also said that the theater experience is being fulfilled in itself.
‘I think it is best to leave it. Once you introduce external additions such as light effects and holograms etc., the entire focus turns on the property. Theater is about dialogues, great story and live performance. It is exactly what should remain. ,
“But certainly more theater can be done for people’s livelihood. And not only actors, but people behind the stage, makeup artist, wardrobe, and of course backstage activists.”
