Do Deewane Sheher Me: Play

Do Deewane Sheher Me


‘Do Deewane Sheher Me’ is a Hindi theatrical adaptation of the Shakespeare’s  play ‘Two Gentlemen of Verona’. Although Shakespeare had put many characters in his hit play, Prof.Danish Iqbal(writer) handpicked only the four major characters from it.

On the 400th death anniversary of William Shakespeare, Mahesh Bhatt has presented the theatre lovers with ‘Do Deewane Sheher Me’.

The context of this play is simple, what would happen if the old characters of the vintage Shakespearean play existed in the contemporary world, what would their behaviors be, what kind of romance it would be and which matter would spark the jealousy between the two friends??

This play was excellently adapted into a new version and was well directed by Kalyani Hiwale and had justified every character in her play properly.

Although the story revolves around the overly used context of a love triangle, its comedy binds its audience together.

Overall, the audience had a good treat of laughter throughout the play; also no visible flaw could be identified. This play is just a onetime watch and does not have the strength to pull its audience once again to experience it.
