Antonette de Maina sings her solo
Today morning at 10.40
in Panjim at Kala Academy. I saw the new Tiatro “MEULELEM NAKA SANDLELEM ZAI”
written and directed by Samuel Carvalho. It was a well attended Show which is
based on our Konkani proverb “RANDLOLEM NAKA PUN SANDLOLEM ZAI” where Dolla,
Mario Menezes, Semenca and Philip Almeida played their roles very well. Hoewever
Dolla’s role was super as a rich divorced mother of one son. She looked majestic in her majestic costumes.
Semenca & Philip Almeida in a scene
Saby de Divar sings his political solo
It is a family story
woven around the subject where the young girl refuses a nice proposal and opts
for love marriage where before getting married the boy leaves her. The role of the boy was beautifully played by
handsome and youthful Philip Almeida while the role of his poor girlfriend was
played appropriately by lovely looking attractive Semenca. A superb role of the
father was played by Mario Menezes.
Semenca & Dola sing their song
A scene
The comedy part was
handled by Comedians Jannet, Agostinho Temudo, Selvv, Richard and Ambe. Agostinho was at his best especially in his
sarcastically witty comments on Goan politicians, more piercingly on Luizinho
Faleiro for his lust for power.
Reagan sings his solo
Another scene
In the Side Show songs,
the songs rendered by Saby de Divar, Reagan, Benny de Aldona, Dolla & Semenca,
Antonette de Maina were worth listening. The duet Reagan rendered with Semenca
was the most precious among all.
Seen above is lovely Dola
Com. Jannet sings her solo
