Nutritonist Rama Mehta and her team presented a dance drama “ Sapno n Ke Par “ about health and healthy lifestyle on 27th of April at Vasantha Bhawan .The dance drama was entertaining, informative and was successful in creating a positive vibe among the audiences.

Watching people struggle to become healthy and looking for a support system to shift smoothly into better health habits made Rama Mehta initiate a start-up called Rangmanch se Healthy. Her vision is to enhance health and wellbeing in both community settings and for individuals. Working with real stories gives us the opportunity to learn about health contexts from both a viewer’s perspective and as a participant. And motivate people to initiate change more effectively using art and creativity.

There’s a deep link between an individual’s behaviour and health. Unhealthy behaviours become habits and can cause people to gain weight, fall into trap of lifestyle related issues and ailments or even shorten their lifespan.

Going through ups and down of life, we often struggle with loss or gain in appetite, problems with sleep, anxiety and stress. Drama or theatre induces self-reflection by engaging with stories performed. It’s thought provoking and also gives release to emotions.

Rangmanch se healthy is not only a source of entertainment it also gives us a new perspective of observing behaviours as participants and audience while bringing about a change.

Rangmanch se Healthy is a team effort works around solutions for health issues/ behaviours using creativity and spontaneity, which if ignored promote lifestyle diseases. We create beautiful stories and operate on minimum budget with the vision to give back to society and spread message of health on vast scale.
