In this comedic and satirical work, “Fitrati Chor” likely uses humor and irony to shed light on the prevalence and acceptance of deceit in contemporary society. The play presents a critical commentary on the moral degradation and erosion of values in the current age, where deceit is often celebrated or overlooked.
Through the lens of satire, “Fitrati Chor” depicts various characters and situations that exemplify the deceptive nature of the Kal Yuga. It might highlight instances where individuals manipulate others for personal gain, exploit societal norms, or use cunning tactics to succeed. The play’s humor and wit serve as a vehicle to provoke thought and introspection, encouraging the audience to reflect on the consequences of deceit and question the prevailing attitudes towards it.
Talking about the acting then some characters especially the main protagonist Chor, Sadhu, Pandit, Businessman and Raja were outstanding. They made the serious theme so light that one could not stop laughing.
Another character worth mentioning is the actor playing Lord Krishna. Without saying a word he took the act to a different level.
Director Bhimta did a great job this time when audiences were glued to their seats. The entire performance is packed with humor in the form of a fast-forwarding sequence or Raja considering Chor to be the next King; each minute of the performance is worth a watch.
