About The Event
Dattu, a small-town dreamer from near Pandharpur, arrives in Mumbai chasing stardom with wide-eyed belief and unstoppable energy. What unfolds is a fast-paced, entertaining journey through the city’s chaos, told through Dattu’s voice as he speaks to the world, imagined audiences, and himself.
Packed with sharp wit, humour, and a refreshingly honest take on modern life, the play blends satire and storytelling with striking simplicity. Dattu may seem naive, but he is deeply aware in his own unfiltered, street-smart way, cutting through the noise with his own brand of woke.
Supported by a dynamic ensemble of 5 actors, the narrative shifts seamlessly, keeping the experience immersive, engaging, and full of surprises. A sharp, high-energy journey through dreams and ambition that leaves you thinking, laughing, and wanting more.
Mahesh Manjrekar brings Dattu to life with his commanding presence, delivering a performance that makes this a must-watch.
