Sands of Time

Popular Pakistani band Raeth,that merged an eastern melody with heavy guitar riffs in their debut single — Bhula do — some years ago,is set to make its Bollywood debut. Slimmer by two members,Raeth now has Wajhi Farouqui on vocals and Hassan Farabi on guitars. These days,the band is busy composing for director Rakesh Ranjan Kumar’s upcoming film,Marksheet,which is about education scams in India. The band’s song will be shot inside Delhi University,after which they will tour various colleges in India.

Rumours,a Zoo & Laughter

Imagine arriving for a party and finding out that the host has shot himself,the hostess is missing and there are no servants. Neil Simon’s Rumours has run to packed theatres since it premiered in the US in 1988. Now,Delhi-based Atelier Theatre Repertory Company presents its Hindi adaptation,Khusar Phusar. This is among the three plays that Atelier will stage from June 1 to 3 at LTG auditorium. The others are The Zoo Story and Laughter on the 23rd Floor. All plays have been directed by Kuljeet Singh. While the former is about two men who meet at Delhi’s Central Park,the latter is inspired by Simon’s experience as a staff writer on Sid Caesar’s Your Show of Shows.
