How will you say Zangoora in Chinese?

The popular musical at The Kingdom of Dreams is now available in a host of other languages

It is being billed as the world's biggest musical. But after over 200 shows, this Indian cinema-themed theatrical is donning a new avatar. In order to garner a larger audience, Zangoora is now available in various other languages through multi-language translation device in English, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Chinese and German and soon in Russian too. Said Viraf Sarkari, Director, Wizcraft International Entertainment: "The amazing response from audiences from both India and abroad have encouraged us to keep the show running and make it available in various other languages to cater to a larger audience."


Colourful catch: Gauhar during a dance number


Palace diaries
Zangoora is staged at Nautanki Mahal, which is built like an Indian palace, with every bit of the outside wall carved with Khajuraho-inspired designs and geometric filigrees. The musical started its journey six months back, featuring Hussain Kuwajarewala, Gauahar Khan and Kashmira Irani. There are extravagant dance sequences of popular Bollywood numbers to capture audiences from a wider spectrum. The LED and projection screens along with in-built circular revolving stage, motorised lifts, aerial flying systems and special effects make for a futuristic experience for an enthralled audience. You can also buy a drink from a red glass mosaic bar flanked on both sides.


It's a fairytale
The on-stage drama is written by Javed Akhtar and set to music composed by music directors Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy, choreography is by Shiamak Davar, the entire production and art design is by Omung Kumar, while fashion designer Neeta Lulla has designed the costumes for this fairlytale of a prince who is brought up by a childless gypsy couple after the murder of his parents by an evil general.


A colourful medley
Culture Gully, a 1,00,000 sq ft air-conditioned boulevard, presents a kaleidoscope of Indian culture and cuisine, with endless choices of themed restaurants, street bars and live street performances. It comprises extravagant havelis representing Rajasthan and Lucknow, a massive kettuvalam housing the Keralite restaurant and a small manmade beach sits pretty next to little Goa. The shopaholics can grab products that are representative of each region like eclectic range of jewellery or handicrafts. A relaxing session at the massage centre or the tarot sessions at the mystic centre will enhance your experience at the Gully.
