It is now 10.45 pm and I am just arriving home from Calangute where in the Church compound I saw the Musical Show "Mahan Mhozo Des-2" staged by Tomazinho Cardoso and Tiatr Academy Goa. Scheduled to start at 7.00 pm, it finally started at 7.45 pm. It was a free show where a good number of audience seen attending. Though it was a show of short duration where only songs and small skits were performed yet finally it turned out to be a bit lengthy because of the Housie Game and a documentary film shown during the interval. The organisers must know that people came there only to see the Musical Show by calculating their time and not to waste it. Just because priests got more free time that does not mean they should think others are also having free time to spend unnecessarily. If they cannot adhere timing properly, they should not organize such Shows. Even in the Churches many priests especially Pe. Vigars waste precious time of the faithful by telling unwanted irrelevant stories.
The major pressure of this Show was shouldered by Tomazinho Cardoso and his smart singer wife Irene. In fact Irene played a stellar role in beautifully singing all the songs in which she participated. Her voice is very melodious and she sings with ease and confidence as a matured and seasoned singer. Tomazinho also sang very well.
The other singers who rendered their songs well were Anthony San and youngsters Akash and Queenie Fernandes both of them were Kingfisher award winners.
Sheikh Ameer performed beautiful mimicry in which he imitated Narendra Modi, Rajiv Gandhi and Anna Hazare.
Short Skits were also performed in which it was shown how badly we treat our females and how badly we respect Mahatma Gandhi.
This Musical Show is worth watching and there is no Chamchagiri on the part of Tomazinho Cardozo to please the Bharat Serkar.
Musical score provided was well yet it was very loud where the words of the singers were shadowed by the loudness of the music.
