 When each spouse is a doubting Thomas

Putting your demands without having an empathy for other's psychological state is the biggest  menace the world is facing nowadays.

There is a married couple of working persons. Each of them feels that the spouse is not taking interest in him or her. Their doubts are corroborated when they really discover each other's infatuation for someone else. Each doubting Thomas makes a cry to their home and a great crowd of relatives from both sides gather there to solve. And there creates a pandemonium sort of situation where each buffoon adds some sort of bizarreness to the already worsened situation. 

Ultimately it is decided that the real villains are the two other persons who are trying to break the nuptial ties of this nice couple. And when the real identities of the two villains are revealed everyone is shocked.

The play is written and directed by Amul Sagar. After watching this show I can say that his directorial skills have ruled over his penman skill. The way he brought the characters in a distinctive comical posture which was borne throughout the play was excellent in terms of comical delivery. Archit, Simran, Nayandeep and others acted in the play. Those who left impression in the minds of the audience included those who acted as the parents of the couple esp. one who was bulky in figure and carried a large number of bags on her body. The other was the father of the husband who not only by his half-pant dress but also by his postures proved himself as a good comedian. The main characters i.e. wife and husband rather remained serious in the whole play which hardly matched to the tone and tenor of this comedy play. The band party did justice to their roles. The advocate also showed his potential of handling different moods at a time.  

After watching this show, I was all smile on my face like the others in  audience.
