Kunta Kona Mooka Jaana

"Kunta Kona Mooka Jaana" is a Kannada comedy play enacted by a team of actors for over a decade. I heard of this first from Pushpa, who had seen it in 2012, she had asked me to see it but somehow it never happened. This play is quite popular, it has a fan following with fans having watched it several times over. This play has eleven roles played by ten actors, six male & four female actors. The play duration is approximately 165 minutes without a break. Most of the scenes and dialogues are funny, people watching them will forget everything else and laugh their hearts out.

This troupe camps at a place for few months, may be three months, the play is enacted 2 or 3 times per day depending on the permission granted by civic authorities.

As I remember this troupe has camped in Dharwad since mid March 2022, playing two times everyday. Ticket cost is ₹100, tickets are issued just before the show. I guess the troupe will be at Dharwad for two or three more weeks. Do watch the actors' awesome performance once, its worth every minute the time spent.
