The Nukkad Natak adaptations which was for a duration of 45 minutes appealed to lakhs of visitors as it was conducted at the Kumbh Mela premises. This initiative was able to woe crowds towards the main presentation “Jamunia – Tasveer Badalte Bharat ki” which was put up at the Company Bagh Grounds at Allahabad, slightly away from the main Kumbh Mela venue during the evenings. Around 150 artistes participated in the show. The main programme was for a total duration of 2hrs 20 minutes.
