Nuggets on Nagar's take on writing
Lucknow: Paying tribute to Hindi writer Amritlal Nagar, a session titled 'Contribution of writer Amritlal Nagar in the World of Theatre' was organised at UP Sangeet Natak Akademi by GJ Events PCT Ltd and Helping Hearts Foundation on Saturday.
The session was conducted by artist Ashok Banerjee. Richa Nagar shared that her grandfather Amritlal Nagar used to say that a story is a relationship between a reader and a writer. It is the responsibility of the writer to pen it in such a way that gives the audience a complete understanding of what he wants to convey, she added.
A play titled 'Laila Majnu' was also staged. Written by Jyoti Kiran Sinha and directed by Alok Srivastava, the play was prepared during the 60-day workshop organised in memory of Amritlal Nagar.
