Streetplay by Awam theatre group of Jamia
A nice statement in the form of Nukkad Naatak (Streetplay). A bunch of talented guys taking a few cues from newsmen, imitating their style of sensationalising the news, in the process of mocking the newsmen.

They mocked the newsmen by statements like,
"we've got the chemicals used in the destructive activities...its exclusively with us only...see this packet, it contains white powder which was used, according to a highly placed source".
The correspondent gets close to the packet, smells, waits...and says..."pardon us, its a bag of salt."

"An exclusive news. According to our sources, police have cracked the case".
And they telecast a statement by police. "His complexion is black , has black beard, black moustache, dressed in black and have a black bike. Wherever you find anyone matching anything mentioned above, inform us".

And many more nice comments they made.

Rush for Naseeruddin Shah's play 'Ismat Aapa ke Naam'
In the Ansari Auditorium, Naseeruddin shah's famous play 'Ismat aapa ke naam' was to be screened for students but rush made it impossible to accomodate all in the '1000 seat' auditorium, so for the 'left-behinds' it was telecasted on projector in Safdar Hashmi amphitheatre, behind the MA Ansari auditorium.
