TOPIC: Raaste 2012- Pictures and Report

Raaste – Chal Chaiyan Chaiyan Chaiyan, a multi media musical show by Shidoreeproductions.

It was a fund raisingprogram by the Sanskar Academy & HSNC for the Learning center and was held at HSNC Hall on Saturday, August 11th2012 .
It was a great event and a large segment ( full house ) of the Indian community showed up in spite of the rainy weather. The show was very successful like last year's kal Aaj Aur Kal. Thanks to all the artists, the singers, the production team, the volunteers who worked very hard, and to all the audiences and sponsors who made this event very successful.

Raaste Theme was based on people from different states, with different paths traveling through the train to Mumbai to become an actor/actress. The stage was decorated with nice settings of the train station, platform, ticket booth, tea stall & train.Passengers got on & off the train at each station the train stopped at & the platform scene showed hustle and bustle of each city's unique culture. The conversation of Kaveri with other traveling passengers was very well narrated.The event lasted for almost 2 hours 30 min with a 10 minutes break.The songs selections was excellent and the singers did a very good job capturing the audiences. The dialogues were very well scripted and directed. The Chai wala, beggar, old lady, Punjabi lady, mad lady & ashik performances were very entertaining. A couple of dances in the program added spice to the show.
