Mehta, the pioneer of modern Gujarati theatre. As a visionary maverick and a Surati, Mehta\u2019s vision and efforts led the UNESCO to declare 27th of March as World Theatre Day. SPAA\u2019s endeavours to deliver Ranghotra is an ode to this legendary playwright and producer, under the Presidentship of Kapildev Shukla. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apart from being a cultural celebration of arts and theatre, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/1701060263288868\/\">Ranghotra<\/a> will also make an attempt to earn a place in Guinness Book of World Records for performing plays for 24 hours non-stop.
