Aadhe adhure essay

Savitri’s spouse, who is supposed to be the head of the family providing for his family, fails miserably. Paradoxically enough, the man is happier when his friends are around (but not his family). Savitri’s children, including her two daughters and a son, also have a hard time interacting with their parents.

In that way, in his play Adhe Adhure, Rakesh portrays an Indian family consisting of unhappy relatives who can hardly stand each other’s presence in their lives.

When reading Adhe Adhure that has been introduced to the world in 1969 and analyzing its themes and idea, one can easily assume that it represents a specific mixture of tragedy and comedy which tells the story of a middle-class family.

Analogically, Savitri’s son has the same sense of dissatisfaction. He does not want to live in the family house but his inability to find a decent job does not allow him to move out. They are all unhappy but they have to live side by side because social reality insists that as a family, they constitute a coherent whole.
