Mumbai, 09 Feb 2015: The sixty-fourth show of Konkani drama Mataro Chorbela was staged to the packed audiences at Zaveriben Popatlal Auditorium, Ghatkopar (East), here on Sunday February 8. The playwright, seventy-one-year-old Francis Fernandes Cascia was in his usual young charms to entertain the crowd through his fantabulous acting. His dream is to have its seventy-fifth show on his seventy-fifth birthday. The play was directed by Joy Paladka.
 
‘As, in his every new show Francis inserts catchy dialogues of the day-to-day life and of the political scenario, it tempts to watch its every show,’ said Johnson who always loves to watch this drama.

Congratulations to the entire team of "Mhataro Chorbela". We laughed our hearts out thoroughly. Also a big credit to "Managlorean Welfare Association, Vidyavihar" for organizing such a good houseful show. We wish you all the best for your future endeavors.
