What are the issues that the playwright satirizes through this TV monologue of a celebrity?
उत्तर
Through the TV monologue of a celebrity, we get to know the suppressed and unrealized inhibitions, insecurities, and covetousness in an individual’s subconsciousness and how he tries to mask them by sympathizing with the person stirring such emotions in him. Again, it is through this TV monologue, that exposes the vernacular gap between communities and the intense concern of commoners as well as intellectuals about the royalties earned through English writing instead of focusing on the subject or issue being expressed or put up in the writing.
