A Kannada adaptation of an English comedy — the relentless, obsessive fuss-making of one man wears down everyone around him, as two divorcees, opposite in how they once treated family, are forced to share a single roof.
Mahapeede Mahablu was developed under the Kalaa Krushi banner with the full Prakasam ensemble. Like all our work, it began in a small rehearsal room with table‑reads, scene work, and a slow accretion of detail across several months.
The production was first staged at KH Kala Soudha in 2016 and has since travelled to other venues across Karnataka. Tour bookings and venue enquiries are welcome — please write to us.

There is nothing greater than the fulfillment of making people forget their worries and laugh. I came up through serious, competitive drama — but a comedy that lands well in a packed house, where strangers laugh in the same beats, is its own discipline. Mahablu was a chance to write toward that, and to trust the actors to keep finding the joke night after night.
The company that gave the play its first life on stage.
