Are theaters willing to give up one day a week for plays? Harish called the owners
Actor Harish Peradi raised the question whether theaters are willing to give up one day a week for plays. Through a Facebook post, he asked if the actors were ready and if the theater owners were ready. He said that he is done telling the government all this.
A question for the theater owners as the news is coming out that there are no people to watch Malayalam movies in the theatre. Would you be willing to give up your theater to plays at the same rate as at present on a trial basis for one day a week?
Audiences will find a sense of peace following watching these realistic movie reruns that have nothing to take away from the brain and life. The actors are ready. are you ready
Tired of telling the government all this. If people buy tickets and go to see the play, the theater people also become tax payers. Any government will follow. Let’s think regarding it then. Let’s start from Kolambi in Kozhikode, said the chairman of the film academy.
The drama is also ready. Kozhikode dramatists will inaugurate this revolution under Rafiq’s direction. Brave theater owners reply. Tomorrow is tomorrow. We are ready,’ said Harish Peradi.
Harish Peradi had demanded that there should be theaters at the government level in all the district headquarters. Every dramatist dreams of a time when people buy tickets and watch plays. In many developed countries, theater tickets are still sold months in advance. Harish Peradi had said that these things are happening here too.
Harish Peradi’s response came following the government announced relaxations for the film industry during Covid, reminding theater artistes who are suffering.
‘I am active in cinema only because I am an actor. You can’t forget the way you came. On that road, my theater friends are sitting tiredly,’ Harish had written.
