Raising funds for Surabhi artistes
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,April 16 2020]
The other day, star director Harish Shankar reached out to the theatre artists of the famous Hyderabad-based theatre group Surabhi in his personal capacity to help them tide over the lockdown-induced hardships. Moved by their plight, the producers of 'Baahubali' have come forward to raise funds and do coordinates.
Seeking funds, the makers said, A few years back, we had done a story on a theatre group in Hyderabad called Surabhi. The group, known for mythological plays with unique special effects and brilliant lighting schemes, comprises members of a single-family put up a performance every week, and this tradition has been going on for nearly 128 years. Meticulously applied make-up, colourful backdrops, lustrous costumes and magic created through innovative tricks are the forte of Surabhi. It creates a magical effect and transports the audience to a make-believe world.
They added that the 50 members of the Surabhi family have lost their job and are going through the worst phase of their lives.
The group consists of many kids and older people who are deprived of their basic necessity due to this lockdown going on in India. Surabhi theatre is striving to survive through this difficult time and needs all our support and help, they aver, giving the bank details of the fund.
