Select the correct option to complete the following sentence.

Students are taking forward the traditional art culture of 'street plays' to create social awareness, now popular as _______ in the urban areas.  

Street plays (nukkad natak) have historically been used in India to spread awareness on social and political issues.

• In urban areas, such traditional forms have evolved into more contemporary expressions while retaining their core purpose of public engagement and awareness.

Key Points

• In urban areas, students are using Flash Mobs—spontaneous-looking, choreographed group performances in public spaces—to spread messages and create social awareness.
• Flash mobs are a modern reinterpretation of street plays, blending performance art with activism and catching public attention in an engaging way.

Hint

• Stage Performances are more formal and not spontaneous like flash mobs.
• Social Gatherings refer to general assemblies, not specific awareness performances.
• Public Speeches are verbal presentations, not dramatic or artistic expressions.

Hence, the correct answer is Flash Mobs.
