Ithihaas Premi Mandal Organizes Historical Shows Combining Technology & Special Effects

PUNE: Shivaji's eventful escape from Panhalgad to Vishalgad and the sacrifice of his loyal general, Baji Prabhu Deshpande, has been brought to life, recreated with light and sound effects and orchestrated around elaborately designed models of the two forts. The show is on from 8 am to noon and 5 pm to 9 pm every day till November 20. Aimed at creating an interest in history among children, the mandal has chosen to combine technology and special effects to hold their interest.
This half-hour journey into history, organised by the Ithihaas Premi Mandal, is being shown at the Navin Marathi school, Ramanbaug. "History must be made interesting, that is why we have chosen to use modern technology and special effects. We choose episodes from history that have a message for children and will instil in them a curiosity about history," said Mohan Shete, a history teacher and founder of the mandal. Established in 1999, the mandal also conducts educational trips to forts and organises slideshows on historical places for schoolchildren, to enhance their awareness about the historical locales in and around Pune.
