When Actor became Producer

In Marathi Theatre Industry, producers produce a play and then he completes their some number of shows and after that he closed down that play. Producer doesn’t keep continuity of their plays whether the play is nice. Producer doesn’t get production cost from their shows, so they decided to stop and don’t want bear more loss. Some producers like Bhadrakali Productions keep arranging shows, whether a number of shows goes to 4000 (Vastraharan). May be they wants to keep the legacy of that play.

In Marathi Theatre comedy plays have their own audience. Normally audience want entertainers, a play which will make them laugh and make happy for buying a ticket. So for earning profit purpose, producer prefer to a play which will make laughter. But thereafter also some plays get down in the industry. That may be due to lack of management their shows or lack of proper advertisement and publicity.

Prashant Damle, a well known artist across the world is now decided to become a producer of his new play “Olakha Na Palakh”. This play is produced by Prashant Damle Fan Foundation and Suyog. Suyog is famous production house in Marathi Theatre industry, but Prashant Damale Fan Foundation are making this first time. Prashant said that earning profit is not only aim, that fund will be used for foundation’s social activities. But here is some interesting, may be Prashant want to make something different. In recent news he announced an online ticket booking service for his new play. A user can book ticket online for “Olakh Na Palakh” on www.prashantdamle.com. This service will start from 13th August, 2008. He has been booked his shows in theatres from 15th Aug. to 31st Aug. 2008. If you look at schedule of this play, you will see that the play is going in all areas which will be comfortable for Marathi Theatre, just like Gadakari in Thane, Dinanath in Vileparle, Atre in Kalyan and may others which are very suitable to catch audience. We have seen Prashant Damle in many roles in Theatre and in Films also, but now we are going to see him in role of Producer. As actor he has been performed excellent, there are world records also, but now its time for producer to make some record.

“Olakha Na Palakh”, based on psychological illness called “Amnesia”, in which a human lost some part of his memory. Play is written by Suresh Jayram. It is fully loaded with comedy. Play has been directed by Mangesh Kadam. Before this Prashant worked with Mangesh in a play “Eka Lagnachi Gosht”, which is still continue in theatres. So I hope in this play we will see a nice chemistry between Mangesh and Prashant. Prashant have been made advertising and publicity of his play, and he is ready to race now
