Dine n Drama
Now that the evenings have turned cooler what better than sitting under the starlit sky and watching a reunion with your close friends. Watch Rahul Da Cunha’s Class of 84 in the beautiful,Greek-style amphitheatre amidst the vineyard. Class of 84 is a roller coaster ride about friendship,filled with pathos and mad humour. Sit back and enjoy the most-loved play of our times. Rebuild your old ties with your friends and recollect the memories of the old college gang with actors- Rajit Kapur and Shernaz Patel. It only gets better as you paint yourself a picture,sipping on some fresh wine right from the vineyards and treat yourself to the delectable food that Little Italy and Kareems have on offer. All this under the open sky at Sula vineyards,Nashik on November 6 at 7 pm.,we promise you it just couldn’t get better.
