Mahabharathil Mangatha – May 25, 2025, Chennai

Introduction

Experience the uproarious, evergreen comedy of Mahabharathil Mangatha, brought to life by Natakapriya and led by the legendary S. Ve. Sekhar. This acclaimed stage play blends slapstick humor with historical adventure as three friends tumble through time—from Kattabomman’s rebellion to Shah Jahan’s court and the epic Mahabharata.

Synopsis

When S. Ve. Sekhar, his writer friend, and the heroine accidentally seize experimental time capsules, they’re whisked back to pivotal eras in Indian history. Their attempts to return home only deepen the chaos, sending them forward and backward through time. Each stop—whether dodging British soldiers, navigating Mughal intrigue, or wandering the battlefields of Kurukshetra—gives rise to laugh-out-loud misunderstandings and witty banter.
