Never Mind

This summer, escape from the heat to showers of laughter as we present one of the most hilarious comedies of the year, Never Mind.
Never mind is a story of budding romance between two interesting characters. Ninad is a very successful marketing manager trying his brilliant business ideas in love. Smita is a creative art designer fascinated by Animals but scared to take the first step.
As if Ninad’s futile efforts to impress Smita and Smita’s craziness for animals weren’t enough, the writer gave freedom of speech to their minds.
If you were in love, are in love or looking forward to it then you might find your quotient in our lead characters, so join us in the fun filled journey to land of love.

  3. a very very verbose, boring, simple-love-storey-made complicated type of play, instead of that see Amol Palekar Vidya sinha's Chhotisi Baat again.

  4. when one has seen so many good plays at Sudarshan by MCCP, and when one saw efforts by actors, director to enact the play Never Mind, one feels very bad to say that the play was very bad, wordy, senseless, written badly, interlude music also senseless the whole effort by serious rangakarmis like pramod kale sir has gone waste because of the script, dialogues and the way simple love storey is written in a complecated way. Never Mind! better luck next time!! we will still come to watch your other plays.

  6. i saw tonight's,12th april,show.i must say i really liked the play for its good direction,music n of course cast.i thought a simple and quite straightforward issue which is very cliche was handled very well.not being experienced in this issue,i'm guessing everybody in love would go through all those emotions expressed by the conscience which have,as you said,''been given freedom of speech'. i think the music was totally in sync with what was going on,kind of like an analogy!the black outs were a tad too long but that let the viewer retrospect and keep pace with the story.the cast was really good.the boxing scene at the end was a pleasant surprise!whenever i see a play,i like to predict the second half(it was pretty straightforward n this 1)n i thought of a rather peculiar ending for this-smita and ninad always knew they were made for each other,they just needed to persuade their consciences that they were doing the right thing! so both of them knew all along they were going to get together,the consciences had to figure it out!not sure how much this makes sense,and its very ambiguous,but it's that i would've liked to see a twist in the end! 1 thumbs up to y'all!keep it up!

  7. I saw the play on Sun.12-Apr-09 at Sudarshan Rangamanch, Pune.
    1. I liked the play very much. Two hours of light, pleasant entertainment!
    2. The production was slick and lighting, etc. was very well directed.
    3. The four youngsters have acted very well -- their body language, tone of voice and facial expressions were very appropriate to the situation being displayed.

    WHAT I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO SEE:-

    4. Some more serious, philosophical dialogues during tense moments of the play -- dialogues which we could have remembered and taken away with us. (but, maybe, the tone of the play is such that such dialogues were not possible???)

    5. The union of the 'other' girl and the 'other' boy (NOT the protagonists -- Joshi and Bhagwat, but the other two) at the end of the play seems rather sudden...there should have been more scenes where their withering love seems to be blossoming again...Of course, this is for the writer to decide.

    6. The play should have started on time. It started 10 min late, and the interval stretched to 25 minutes instead of 10 -- without any reason. Please keep in mind that people are waiting to have dinner at home with us.

    7. On that same note, can the play start at 6:30 pm and on a Saturday???
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    All in all, a play well worth watching!
    My complements to the whole team!!

  8. The first part of teh play was excellent. However, teh second half was a bit drag. The play had become almost predictable by then, and some dialogs simply made it boring.
    I was greatly disappointed by the way the play ended. It constantly reminded me of a bollywood movie. The end could have been more theatrical.
    Personally I would have loved the play to end seriously and realistically - the ego clashes ending with their seperation. But this being humorous play, I still believe, the end could have been made better.
