[icernet] A folk play with a disturbing message

[Arul Selvan MIC]

For, the visual medium - be it the screen or the stage -  has the power
to completely grip one's attention and the images invariably tend to
remain in one's memory long after the curtain has fallen. This is one
important reason why a movie-maker or a drama director has to be
particularly careful about what he shows. Unfortunately, some are
careless, to the point of being irresponsible. A fok play (Jatra) in
West Bengal is now under Government scrutiny because of its distrubing
message.
