MySuru: Rangayana, who hosted Bahuroopi – Annual Winter National Theater Festival In mid-January, was on the news for all the wrong reasons when the Revertory Theater Director Addanda CariaPpà and theater activists were in the loggerheads through inviting BJP Malavika Avinash and Chakravarthy Sulibele .
While the snowballed problem became a big line, Rangayana was forced to delay Bahuroopi because of the Omicron crisis.
Now Rangayana has rescheduled Fest for the second week of February by renouncing the name as Bahuroopi Rashtriya Rangotsava as a substitute for Bahuroopi Rashtriya Natakotsava.
The series of protests held by various theater organizations and writers failed to make any impact because Rangayana did not drop the duo from the invitation list.
However, to avoid further controversy about this problem, Rangayana has invited Chakravarthy Sulibele not as a social worker but as a thinker and orator for the Valedictory of the Festival.
Director of Rangayana Addanda C SearchAiaPpa, while sharing details on Bahuroo, on Saturday saying Rangotsava 10 days with ‘motherly’ theme will be held from March 11 to 20.
On March 11, JanapadotsaVA will be arranged where the troupes group will carry out various forms of art.
Janapadotsava will be inaugurated by the President of the Academy of Janapada Karnataka, Manjamma Jogathi.
Yakshagana Academy President Gl Hegde and Folk exponent Vijyalyakshmi will be present.
Although there is no change in the name of the main guest for the inauguration of the Bahuroopi Theater Festival, which will be carried out by the Tulasi Gowda environment, the event will be attended by St Somashekar District Minister and the selected representative from Mysore.
Meanwhile, for the Valedictory event, Rangayana has invited Priest and Orator Hiremagaluru Kannan to give a speech along with Chakravarthy Sulibele on the Themic theme.
Cariivple said, “There will be 12 played from different Indian languages, 20 dramas from Kannada, four traditional folk art including Yakshagana and bombyata and 28 folk dances made by a female group during the festival.” “In special programs to be held at BV Karanth Rangachavadi, there will be a speech competition about ‘thayi’ (mother) for degree and winners will be given a cash prize of RS 30,000,” he said.
CariApleiaPpa said 25 award-winning films from various countries described in the concept of mothers will be screened during the festival.
This event will be inaugurated by Tara Anuradha’s actor, Director of Film and Chairperson of the Kannada Development Authority TS Nagabharana and Kannada Chalanchitra Sunlanik Academy Chairman.
