Bal Gandharva Ranga Mandir

Bal Gandharva Ranga Mandir, Theatre and exhibition center in Shivajinagar, Pune, India

Bal Gandharva Ranga Mandir is a drama theatre on Jangli Maharaj Road in Shivajinagar, Pune, named after the Marathi singer and stage actor Bal Gandharva. Its air-conditioned auditorium has 669 seats on the ground floor and 320 in the balcony, facing a 30 by 44 by 22 foot stage with a large front curtain. A gallery on the upper floor hosts regular exhibitions of books, paintings and other art objects.

The cornerstone was laid in 1962, and the theatre opened on 26 June 1968, inaugurated by home minister Yashwantrao Chavan at a ceremony chaired by Acharya Atre. Writer and humourist Pu. La. Deshpande drove the idea of a dedicated drama theatre, which the Pune Municipal Corporation owns.

The venue serves as a hub for multiple art forms, regularly hosting theatre productions, music concerts, and dance performances alongside exhibitions. These varied programs reflect the local artistic community's interests and keep the space active throughout the year.

The stage measures 30 by 44 feet with a 22-foot height, and a large front curtain faces it. Seating is split between 669 seats on the ground floor and 320 in the balcony. The compound also holds quarters for performers and space where stalls selling seasonal goods are set up.
