Remembering Jacinto Vaz
Today 30th April is the 16th death anniversary of late Jacint Vaz.
(Died 30th April 1993)
Well known as King of comedy and Charlie Chaplin of the Konkani stage,
Jacint Vaz started his acting career very early.
I dont know how many of you on gnet have been lucky to watch him live on
stage, but he surely made everyone laugh...like we say "ansoin ansoin pott
dukoitalo".
One of the scenes, where in he acted as a Bebdo...he would go on and on
talking to himself and literally walking out of the stage.
I dont think we will ever get a Comedian like the late Jacint Vaz. Besides
> acting he used to sing comedy solos too
Listen to this song "Congott" which was recorded in 1953 on LP.This song is
regarding the Calangute beach in Month of May.
Mayacho moino munche sorg mure Congotti .....Month of May in Calangute was
like heaven then..
May his soul rest in peace.

A friend of mine was able to record on his pc from one of his late dads LP
Collections.
The hissing sound is kept to give the song the originality.
Lyrics of this song with other songs of Jacint Vaz are available on
