The saint and the prince

Thiruvananthapuram | Wednesday | 19th July, 2017

Summary:

Although Lord Rama tries his best to avoid a conflict, Parasurama’s words and actions aggravate the situation. What enhances the role are the opportunities the actor gets to link some of the past deeds of Parasurama and Rama, while highlighting the deeds of the brave saint. The play opens with this scene where Parasurama appears, armed with axe, bow and arrows, and stops them from travelling ahead. Kalamandalam Sudeep, Kalamandalam Jishnu Ravi and Parvathy Suresh essayed the roles of Dasaratha, Sita and Lakshmana. Later, as Parasurama realises the true identity of Rama and seeks forgiveness, he tones down his anger..
