Project SadiSaath - The beginning!

Recently there has been a lot of GSB Konkani comedy videos on the web and my favourites are the ones by 420Prash which still keep on tickling my ribs after watching them for maybe fifty times or so. Konkani is a great language for comedy and this comedy can be broadly classified into two forms - the healthy "veg" comedy which is aimed towards people of all age groups or the "non-veg" bhand comedy for the mature people. :)

Inspired by creative people like 420Prash, we decided to make some videos and this led to the "formation" of SadiSaath ( meaning 7 and half in Konkani, a reference to the infamous number 7 that has been attributed to us GSBs from time immemorial).



As of now, three of us friends form this group and share the credits for the voicing over and script writing.

The three of us:

Myself as Gondu Poru
Chandru as Savai Budonthu
AND
Jagga as Mukkala Mharaga

We aim to write and enact healthy comedy intended towards audiences of all ages. The first video we released yesterday has been recieved by the audience quite positively and it seems to be a good start for us. We will be needing your support to improve the quality and content of the videos as well as to help these videos reach out to a lot of people.

This is our debut video titled - "Returning from Kodial Teru"



Non-Konkani viewers may not be able to make out most of the dialogues and here is a brief summary of the video:


After a heavy meal at the Car festival in Mangalore, three people - Maamu(voiced by Gondu Poru), Charko (Voiced by Savai Budonthu) and the Chelli (presumably Maamu's daughter) are on their way home back by car. Maamu supposedly has hogged a lot of food, especially the Dalithoi (Dal) which has resulted in a state of massive flatulence. As he keeps on talking, he relieves himself of all the rectal gases, while the other two can only wonder from where the odor has been emanating from.

Watch the video and let us know the feedback!
