He Mor Debota
He Mor Debota
Based on a short story by Deborshi Saroghee, and dramatized by Smt. Sima Mukhopadhyay, the drama symbolically raises its voice in support of peace, and threatens the traditional 'by the name of God' conception. The drama deals with the heritage, aesthetics, and values of Indian culture. The synoptic outline of the drama is as follows. The drama contains the everlasting, infallible fragrance of love.
In the perspective of all-devouring panic of Turkish invasion, the drama projects the intricacies of mankind, their relative situations and insecurities, racial conflict which leads to insurgent attitude. The character 'Pagol' (The mad), who adheres in every aspect and founds to be homomorphous to the God, proves the disability of himself or the God in disguise and says that he creates, just to rejoice his creation. He (The God instead) is not a prophet.

Continuing Synopsis
He enjoys and cherishes every bit of uncertainty in the living world. This, at the same time threatens and warns our impetuous religious prejudice and sharpens our conscience, subsequently. On the other hand, the playwright establishes through 'Bhavananda' (Another prime character of the play) that it is a sin to lose faith upon human, humane and humanity. In absolute adversity, he (Bhavananda) cannot make himself displeased towards his hostile compatriot. He is the man, who believes firmly, that it is love, which in long term, will win over all the antagonistic forces. The drama does not end in a certainty of desire-come-true. Neither was it intended to make it a happy ending.
The estrangement ending of the drama, which makes it a tragedy, is never an indication of pessimistic ideology. At the end, the soul of the audience accepts love as the life-breath, subconsciously. They understand that love is that magical touch of life, which can make the dormancy of sanctity of peace and elegance awake, under the turmoil, pertaining to the nation and the world in large sense.
