Description

PUROSHOTTAM SHREEPAT KALE (VAPU KALE’S FATHER), HAS WRITTEN THIS BOOK SOMEWHERE IN THE 1940-50S. HE WAS AN ARTIST BY NATURE. HE WOULD COLOUR THE DRAPES REQUIRED DURING DRAMAS, LOOK AFTER THE UPSTAGE, OFFSTAGE AND COSTUMES. HE WORKED WITH KESHAVRAO BHOSALE’S LALITKALADARSHA DRAMA COMPANY. THOUGH AN ARTIST, HE HAD EQUAL COMMAND OVER WORDS AND WRITING. PUSHREE, AS HE WAS FONDLY KNOWN AS, HAS ALSO PORTRAYED AN APT WORD-PICTURE OF MANY ARTISTS. HE HAD AN IMMENSE STORE OF STORIES AND MEMORIES OF THESE EMINENT PERSONALITIES. HIS INNOVATIVE STYLE HAS MADE THE CONTENT READABLE AND INTERESTING. IT ALSO ALLOWS US TO TAKE A ROUND THROUGH THE PAST OF DRAMA AND THEATER.
