Recently I got
an opportunity to watch the new DVD “PEARL 2” by Annie Quadros who is known as
Pearl of Konkani Stage. It is scripted,
directed and produced by her only. It
was a wonderful job done by Annie inspite of being a female. On Konkani stage ladies have done great
job. To produce a film is not a joke and
for a lady it is more difficult and yet by overcoming all the difficulties Annie
Quadros attained a very good success.
In early
seventies two sisters Mohana and Ophelia staged their own Tiatro in Bombay and
in Goa with the assistance of C. Alvares and more or less during that time only
Jessie Dias staged her own Tiatro, of course she had the strong support of her
Tiatrist husband Cyriaco. Thru these two
examples I try to indicate the greatness of ladies in this field even though
they are ladies.
The story of the film is very good with very
good and philosophical dialogues. This shows the high calibre of the script
writer Annie Quadros. Every artiste performed his or her role perfectly well
but major credit should go to the young girl seen in the picture extreme left
and who played the role of Pearl. Mathew
Araujo played his role well so too both the comedians Selvy and Humbert. Small
but very philosophical role played by Prince Jacob was worth admiring, it was a
philosophical comedy. Hazl also played her role well and the role played by the
small boy seen in the picture deserved highest compliments. Daniel D’Souza and
Dr. Kiran played their roles well.
This DVD is
worth watching.
