| | | | Thus far I have seen two productions directed by Vipul Vilas Mahagaonkar of Taleem Mumbai. The two plays- PAI PAISHACHI GOSHTA, and KHIDKI more recently, are striking. Both plays are adaptations. The former is based on the eponymous story by Dr Vijaya Rajadhyaksha, while the latter wonderfully captures the farcical comedy and impact of Dario Fo's play - ACCIDENTAL DEATH OF AN ANARCHIST. Both productions are reflective of Vipul's sensitivity towards the texts and of his mature understanding, which contribute to their very effective translation on stage. His plays have been regularly invited to be staged at the NCPA Pratibimb festival dedicated to Marathi theatre. |

Deepa Punjani (DP): When and how did you get involved with directing plays?
Vipul Vilas Mahagaonkar (VVM): I started as a backstage artiste, working for several inter-collegiate plays. That gave me an opportunity to observe the directors. Simultaneously I started reading and writing. Initially I wasn't sure if I wanted to direct a play but gradually the process of rehearsals became interesting. The aspect of storytelling became important. When I was in my last year in college I directed a play called TE based on the subject of homosexuality. It • | L-5 | R.K. Desai | | L-8 | M.J.
