Mysuru: City-based theatre group Rangavalli will be staging a comedy play ‘Parameshi Prema Prasanga’ on Mar. 15 and 16 at Kiru Rangamandira in Kalamandira premises at 6.30 pm.

Parameshi Prema Prasanga, a full-fledged comedy play, is written by Srinivasa Prabhu, inspired by the works of English writer P.G. Wodehouse.

The play brings together an eccentric set of characters — Parameshi and Rashmi, caught in the tangled web of love; the formidable Ambabai, a reincarnation of Kaliya; her seemingly timid but shrewd husband, the lion-hearted Hulivan Bhuthanathayya; Krishnaoji, an ever-enthusiastic compiler of handbooks, and his childhood sweetheart Venkatasubbi; the poeticpoliceman Vyakulray; Pundariku, a thief straight out of Obiraiya’s time, and his modern-day bandit wife, Cheṇṇi; and finally, Desai, who seems to exist  solely to eat.

Renowned designer H.K. Dwarakanath has crafted the stage design while Madhu Ninasam has designed the lighting and Bhupathi has composed the music.

C.V. Saritha and Manju Kachakki are in charge of makeup and Hariprasad has designed the costumes. The play is directed by Ravi Prasad.

An entry fee of Rs. 100 has been fixed for this play.
