Dubai, May 8: Pradeep Barboza, young playwright, actor and director who has written and directed several Konkani plays at the young age took the sizable crowd at Al Nasr Leisureland Nashwan Hall to a different world with his outstanding comedy play 'Sangon Mugdana', which in turn made the spectators to forget the work pressure and stress of busy day-to-day life.

His play 'Sangon Mugdana' was worth the money, as SMKC Dubai presented this play to support and encourage young talents.

Lawrence D'Souza, Al Raien Metallic Const. Ind LLC and Boniface Carlo, Main Coordinator of SMKC, inaugurated the programme by watering the plant. Boniface Carlo Spoke on this occasion and congratulated young talents, and thanked everyone who made this play possible in Dubai.


















 
The story of the play has been based on a simple issue but narrated in a very meaningful way to convey the message that rich remain rich while the poverty never abandons the poor. People always boast of their own abilities and they want to be in the limelight always. Every young heart which is in love claims to be Jodi No 1, and no one is above them. This is the story which Pradeep Barboza says "Never Ends" (Sangon Mugdana).

Audience has praise for everything in this play right from the direction to the characterization. Pradeep Barboza was honoured by SMKC for his contribution to the Konkani theatre. Cyril Baptist directed music for the show
 
Main sponsor of the event, Michael D'Souza of Oasis Court, Hotel Apartment, support sponsors Lawrence D'Souza of Al Raien Metallic Const. Ind LLC, Joseph Mathias of Merit Freights, Vincent D'Souza of Evolin Paints and Varnish Trading, Edwin Lewis of Ahmed Decor, were felicitated with bouquet by Fr Freddy.

    Dear Cyril, It looks like you have totally mistaken the issue. As you may be aware the recent program was organized and conducted by SMKC Dubai. Pradeep is very much a member of the UN and MVCA Group but to thank MVCA for the program organized by another group, it doesnt'' make any sense! If MVCA was involved in this program in any way then you could have asked this sort of questions but here UN or MVCA was not at all involved. Though everyone knows Pradeep has participated in all of the UN programs and is also well praised. So where is the problem now? The Drama is already over and everyone has enjoyed it and now why create unnecessary issues?
