Wizcraft
has always brought innovation to entertainment and given the world some of its
best experiences and this time, they are here to entertain the hell out of you
with a Broadway style musical titled ‘Balle Balle’, which is a humorous take on
the larger-than-life Indian wedding. However, if you are not convinced yet
about watching the musical extravaganza, we bring to you ten reasons to watch
‘Balle Balle’…
A
Wizcraft Production: Wizcraft is India’s leading media and entertainment
company, dedicated to showcasing its expertise on the world stage. Having
pioneered and developed India’s biggest entertainment brand IIFA that has taken
Indian Cinema and culture to the world, and conceptualized some of the grandest
events globally including the 50
Years of Indian Independence, the 30

years of the South African Freedom Struggle, the Commonwealth Games Opening and

India’s first live Broadway style Bollywood Musical show, Wizcraft has been
creating original content for theatrical productions since 2010, starting with Zangoora and Jhumroo at Kingdom
of Dreams.
Broadway-Style Theatrical Extravaganza:
Indian theatre-goers have seldom seen Broadway-style plays in India and the
makers of ‘Balle Balle’ have come up with a musical and theatrical experience,
which is entertaining for even those, who have not been exposed to such
entertainment.
Live Singing By All Actors: Another reason why
‘Balle Balle’ should be on your ‘to do’ list this weekend in Mumbai is the fact
that it features live singing by all the actors in the play and it is a sheer
delight for the viewers to see actors break into a song right there on the
stage! The two-hour spectacle features 48
talented stars singing live as they simultaneously entertain the audiences with
their phenomenal performances, dazzling costumes, breathtaking visuals and
sizzling choreography.
Fabulous
Choreography: This was the first time I had witnessed a musical play and truth
be told, I was blown away by the sheer talent on the stage. The choreography is
immaculate and awe-inspiring. It is easy to imagine actors dancing in films on
the silver screen where there are dozens of retakes, but to watch it live right
before your eyes is a different experience altogether, which should not be
missed at all.
Wholesome Family Entertainment: ‘Balle Balle’
has humour, romance, drama and a big fat Indian wedding… what else does one
want? In terms of sheer and wholesome entertainment for the entire family,
‘Balle Balle’ is total paisa vasool…
Crazy, Whacky, Lovable Characters: ‘Balle
Balle’ has everything that will remind you of why Indian weddings are fun to
attend. There is the doting grandma, the strict Papaji, the giggly sister, the
whacky ‘bro’ of the bride, the hot aunt, the ‘jugaadu’ wedding planner and many
more characters you will absolutely fall in love with.
A Treat For Bollywood Fans: If you love
Bollywood songs, ‘Balle Balle’ will be like buffet full of your favourite
dishes! There is a Bollywood song for every occasion and to watch the actors
sing (and sing damn well, let me add) them live on stage, is an absolute treat
for Bollywood buffs out there. The musical play has 25 iconic Bollywood songs to warm the cockles of
your heart.
Superb
Technical Aspects: Lavish and ‘larger than life’ are the two words that come to
mind when you watch ‘Balle Balle’ and the visuals and special effects used in
the play are something that will stay on your mind days after you have seen the
play. The amount of talent and hard work that has gone behind the technical
aspects of the play, be it the set design or the costumes or the lighting, is
absolutely admirable.
Astute
Direction: Viraf Sarkari has put together a huge cast with terrific staging
that all comes together seamlessly at the Bal Gandharva Rang Mandir Theatre in
Bandra. The action shifts from one staging to another at breakneck pace and
there is hardly any lag, with the projection screen and light design creating a
spectacle as the players take turns to entertain the audiences against varied
backdrops and situations.
Destination Theatre in Mumbai Western Suburbs:
While the NCPA has been the chief destination theatre in South Mumbai, with its
Jamshed Bhabha Theatre hosting all premium concerts and plays, Mumbai has not
had a permanent venue of this scale in the Western Suburbs, that can host a
play for a long sustained run on a magnificent stage with great acoustics and
seating. All other theatre venues have been attached to colleges or other
establishments and have often fallen short on multiple levels; Bal Gandharva Rang
Mandir is a grand theatre venue destined to be the entertainment centre of the
suburbs in Mumbai, more so centrally located at Bandra in today’s times of city
expansion, easily accessible by South Mumbai and Suburbs both, and a grand
entry in Mumbai’s cultural and theatre world.
