<p>Despite the heavy rains that lashed the City in the evening, many people turned up to watch this drama. In spite of a simple script and slow story pace, the play was able to hold the attention of the audience as the young generation could connect to its contemporary issues. <br /><br />The play revolved around a girl called Jasmine, who is not from a poor or underprivileged background. She is well-educated and mature enough to take her own decisions. <br />But she misjudges every situation and comes to a wrong conclusion. Fortune has nothing to do with her condition getting worse.<br /><br />Eventually, she makes her life a living hell. The beginning of the play was quite interesting as Jasmine, who is a village girl, marries Jem and comes to the city to live with him. <br /><br />But soon she realises that Jem loves his work more then her. She blindly trusts an unsettled stranger, Robby, and goes with him. <br /><br /></p>.<p>She gives all her jewellery, including her wedding ring, to Robby for selling. She loves him but he sells her to a brothel for money. <br /><br />Jasmine is now locked up within four walls away from her principles and desires. <br />Meanwhile, Jasmine’s friend Jeff, comes to the City in search of her to inform her of her mother’s demise. <br /><br />He finds her in an unimaginable condition and returns to his village with a broken heart. After listening to Jeff, her brother decides to free her but in the process gets killed brutally. <br /><br />All his efforts to save Jasmine go in vain and she returns to her profession permanently. <br />Though you enjoy the play till the end, you hardly develop any sympathy for Jasmine, who is the reason for her own downfall and a reason for Jem’s madness. <br /><br />Directed by Pradeep Shastry, a theatre enthusiast, the play was enacted by a team of young actors. The play is in a narrative form and a clown narrates the story. <br /><br />Jasmine was played by Soumya, who lived up to the expectations of people. “The story is appealing and it warns us about a mistake we often make, that is judging a situation early. Attracted by the colourful city life, Jasmine betrays Jem who has a practical approach towards life and lands up in trouble. <br /><br />This 90-minute play is a medley of love, betrayal, trust and misfortune,” said Vikram, who had come to watch the play.<br /><br /><br /></p>
