Marathi Play ‘Yamachya Bailala…’ for the social awareness of cancer.

Prashant Damle

Even though the name seems to be very weird and not at all related to the topic it may be considered as first attempted on Marathi stage for the social awareness of cancer. Prashat Damle Fans Foundation made a very good attempt to script down a comedy play to bring cancer awareness among the people.

It’s a one act play where Yumraj, the god of death played by Prashant Damle is very sad as he is not able to bring anyone’s soul from the earth heaven. So he call his assistance Chitragupt, who is in charge of registering all death and birth. They plan to visit earth to examine what exactly the matter is. There also they try to catch a soul but still they are unsuccessful in that. There they meet one lady who is earlier diagnosed by cancer but now she is totally fit. So they get to know about the precautions and treatment of cancer.

It was a really nice play to attract people attention in the disease like cancer in which people normally have many misconceptions. With a nice tint of comedy the viewers wont feel bored anytime and learns a lot of useful things with entertainment. The best feature of this play is it is not a commercial and so it is free to all. Prashant Dample Fan club orginasing this play in association with reputated medical hospital/ Social trust including Kokilaben dirubhai ambani hospital trust, Aasta Breast Cabcer group etc.. Play is directed by Mangesh Kadam, Written by Dr. Shekar Kulkarni and cast including Prashant Damle, Mangesh Kadam, Shivani Karadkar, Pari Telang,

Through this attempt many things are cleared about the disease besides that there is a team of doctors present from respective trust; So audience can ask questions live and clear their doubts. The show stealer Prashant Damle is much to be appreciated who has taken very nice initiative for social awareness. Also the special credit should go to Prashant Damle foundation for taking part in a social activity like this. The shows of this play are currently going houseful in many parts of state especially in Mumbai and Pune.
