Mannar Mathai Speaking

The bustling streets of Kerala pulse with the energy of a wandering troupe that treats life as much as the stage as a comedy of errors. At its helm is Mannar Mathai, a seasoned theatre veteran who has turned his love for drama into “Urvashi Theatres,” a modest company that dreams of big applause despite limited resources. The troupe’s heart beats in the antics of its three lead performers, whose chemistry is equal parts friendship and rivalry, creating a rhythm that feels both familiar and delightfully chaotic.

Gopalakrishnan and Balakrishnan are the troupe’s twin engines, forever jostling for the spotlight while Mathai tries to keep the show together. Their banter is razor‑sharp, their egos larger than the modest stages they play, and their devotion to the craft is matched only by their competitive spirit. The dynamic among them is a constant source of uproarious situations, each conflict resolving into a larger, more absurd misunderstanding that propels the group’s escapades forward. The atmosphere is warm and noisy, filled with the scent of inked scripts, backstage gossip, and the occasional off‑key rehearsal that hints at the troupe’s endearing imperfections.

When the troupe’s leading lady unexpectedly quits, the fragile balance collapses, thrusting the trio into a frantic hunt for a replacement. Their search leads them to a young woman who leaps into their world under dramatic circumstances, sparking a series of comedic misunderstandings that threaten to upend the carefully rehearsed chaos. As they scramble to fill the missing piece, the stage becomes a playground for improvisation, ego clashes, and heartfelt moments that showcase the troupe’s resilience. The film promises a lively blend of slapstick humor, heartfelt camaraderie, and the unpredictable twists that only a travelling theatre can conjure.
