Nagpur: Mahatma Gandhihas made several referencesto Shrimad Rajchandra in hisautobiography ‘The Story ofMy Experiments with Truth’and has called him a ‘refuge.’
Play ‘Yugpurush — Ma-hatma Ke Mahatma’ at-tempts to showcase Gand-hi’s bonding with his spiri-tual guru and his journeyfrom being Mohandas to Ma-hatma. Hindi adaptation ofthe original Gujarati pro-duction was staged at Dr Va-santrao Deshpande Hall onTuesday evening.
The play begins withGandhi reaching his ash-ram after being discouragedby volunteers to attend aprayer service for securityreasons. “Body is temporalbut God is forever,” repliesGandhi, enacted by Dars-han Mahajan.
On insistence of follo-wers, Gandhi narrates hisspiritual journey from beingMohan to Mahatma. “I’vemet many spiritual gurus.But Ramchandraji’s state-ments touch my heart,” headds. His charkha and a cus-hioned seat are the onlyprops on stage, and the back-drop is the ashram doorway.
Scene two: A young
Gandhi, from his days as abarrister from England, co-mes on stage, played by In-drajeet Soni. From this mo-ment onward, past and thepresent are juxtaposed onthe stage. The narrative issmooth and the elaboratebackdrops keep changingwith a single slide, withoutneeding to draw curtains orcreating a blackout. Ram-chandra’s character as a po-et and trader is drawn out,enacted by Henish Kharwar.It shows a calm man who canperform 100 tasks at thesame time, who can remem-ber fifty words at one go andis a humanitarian at heart.Gandhi continues corre-
spondence with him after le-aving Mumbai.
The play asks several qu-estions — can religion andtrade go hand in hand? Is re-ligion practised only on cer-tain days? Why are there somany religions? Is shatavd-han, being attentive to 100things at once, possible? Theplay shows the young andold Mahatma coming toget-her to share the story of hisguru; in one scene, underthe same spotlight.
The depiction of all cha-racters is brilliant, but onewonders if what is depictedabout Rajchandra is factualor a mechanism of glorify-ing the spiritual guru.
The play has its mo-ments of comedy. But somebits appear preachy, like alot of information waitingto be unleashed on the audi-ence. Written by Uttam Ga-da, the play is directed by Ra-jesh Joshi, who has refinedthe narrative into a smoothand flowing bouquet of sce-nes. The music, composedby Sachin-Jigar, is intrigu-ing and engaging.
The play, staged by Shri-mad Rajchandra Mission,Dharampur, has completed240 shows in over 65 cities.Three shows of the play willbe held on March 15 at 1pm,4pm and 8pm at Dr Vasant-rao Deshpande Hall.

the researcher said, “We aretaught that Vasco Da Gamadiscovered India. But, ac-cording to Vishnu Wakad-kar, a researcher who studi-ed history in London, foundin a book written by VascoDa Gama himself that hewas led by an Indian traderto India by towing his ship.”
Alkari emphasized thatthe ships built in India werefour times bigger than thosein Europe. Most of the Indi-an-made ships were used bythe European traders. He al-so said that the Indian shipswere not only bigger in sizebut were developed as la-vish royal and strong warfa-
re carriers.“After the 13th century,
the navy of India did not ex-ist on a large scale for at le-ast 400 years. Even the migh-ty Mughal kings had to paytaxes to Portugal if they hadto go to Mecca,” said Alkari.
“Chhatrapati ShivajiMaharaj was the first Indi-an king who created a supe-rior naval force and advan-ced his reach in the seas.Such was the power thateven Portugal and the Bri-tish feared the navy of Shi-vaji,” added Alkari.
The naval forces of India‘died’ because of the Britishcolonial rule.
