ऐ केसी तनहा पन से गुजर रहा हूं ।
आज तो ये जाम की प्यालियां भी जैसे बागी सी है ।
आज फिर किसी की यादों ने दील पे दस्तक दी है ।
ओर फिर से आखे नम सी हो रखी है ।
न जाने क्यूं आज ये सराब का नशा फिका हो गया ।
आज फिर गम ने घेर लिया है ।
आज आशु भी लफ्ज़ बन कर रो रहे है।
क्या बताएं जनाब आज-कल उजालों का दामन छोड़ दी या है।
बस अब य मेखाने की बुज ती हुई रोशनी से ही पयार हों गया है।
न जाने कब वो सूरज की रोशनी का दीदार किया था।
लम्बा समय हो गया उस रोशनी को देखे।
अब अंधेरी रात से ओर इस जाम की प्यालियां के साथ वकत बीत जाता है।
जनाब पहले मुझे लगता था की में अकेला हूं पर इस मेखान में बेठा हर एक इंसान
उजालों के फरेब का सिकार हुए हैं।
इसी लिए "माही" के गए करी ऐ संग मेखाने का निर्वाण हो ई,
जलदी ,ओर जो उजालों के पीछे जय ता ज़िन्दगी हो ई नरक।

હું એકલા જીવતા સીખી ગયો છું.
Post-Viewing Tasks:
1) Why are two scenes of Lulu omitted from the movie?
---> Its depend on directors mind where is no necessity to follow original text important is the essence of tax is remained there so doing that omitted 2 scene of Lulu still the essence or sequence order maintained by director so is it all ok.
2) Is movie successful in giving us the effect of menace? Where you able to feel it while reading the text?
Yes when we visualise something its give more effect on us just because when we reading at the time we have to imagine and our imagination fulfill what we read means at that time what come in our mind that type of image we portrait in character but when we visualise at that time we can find the original characters with their own nature and their on significant and at that time we can easily analyse them.
1).When the Dono and Stanley try to hide a him in kitchen at that moment.
2). when the to stranger I started questioning and Stanley have no answer and so much question trolley comes.
3) in the last scene when Stanley go with them.
4) and second if we find that Stanley try to speak but he cannot speak at that time they said that now we become a gentleman.
5) Do you feel the effect of lurking danger while viewing the movie? Where you able to feel the same while reading the text ?
6) What do you read in 'newspaper' in the movie? Petey is reading newspaper to Meg, it torn into pieces by McCain, pieces are hidden by Petey in last scene.
Newspaper names outside the world. The power control bye Petey. and the reflection thatpetey is more know about outside world then McCain. In last scene we find that the Petey hidden the pieces it means he knows something about Stanley but you don't reveal the original thing which McCain don't know.
7) Camera is positioned over the head of McCain when he is playing Blind Man's Buff and is positioned at the top with a view of room like a cage (trap) when Stanley is playing it. What interpretations can you give to these positioning of camera?
Camera is positioned over the head of McCain when he is playing Blind Man's Buff , it means McCain don't know what's going on but still she try to cover up and she is thinking like that all is going good. When is positioned at the top with a view of room like a cage (trap) when Stanley is playing it, it means Stanley is cover up by two strangers and now there is no scope To out of the condition. It represent that went too powerful Nation are Force to third country then that country has to sacrifice.
Example :- America and Russia border Bombay Dyeing in Syria.
6 "Pinter restored theater to its basic elements: an enclosed space and unpredictable dialogue, where people are at the mercy of one another and pretense crumbles." (Pinter, Art, Truth & Politics: Excerpts from the 2005 Nobel Lecture). Does this happen in the movie?
------>. yes, some extent it happens in the movie. Everyone has love and care for each other for instance Meg, lulu and Petey show care for Stanley but at the end when Stanley is in problem no one can helps or even care. So, we can connect this with
1) India faith for Kashmiri people but there are problems still going on and there is no solution.
2) America and Russia fighting in Syria.
3) biggest issue of Philistine.
4) Naxalite Movement.
7) How does viewing movie help in better understanding of the play ‘The Birthday Party’ with its typical characteristics (like painteresque, pause, silence, menace, lurking danger)?
Yes it's a helpful to understand birthday party just because when we reading at that time we have to imagine and sometime our personal imagination also come in reading so that's why the character become very complicated to understand but when we watching movie at that time we come to know the character are visualise so they are in their characteristics and we can analyse them as they are so that's why movie is better than reading.
8) With which of the following observations you agree:
o “It probably wasn't possible to make a satisfactory film of "The Birthday Party."
o “It's impossible to imagine a better film of Pinter's play than this sensitive, disturbing version directed by William Friedkin”[3]. (Ebert
---> It probably wasn't possible to make a satisfactory film of "The Birthday Party."
Yes it is too tough to make movie just because its manner of comedy and absurdity so it's impossible to describe that all thing that's why it is impossible to make movie on that type of topics.
---> It's impossible to imagine a better film of Pinter's play than this sensitive, disturbing version directed by William Friedkin”[3].
Yes that is also true that is impossible to imagine a better film of Pinter's play than this sensitive, disturbing version directed by William Friedkin.
9 ) If you were director or screenplay writer, what sort of difference would you make in the making of movie?
No I have not make any kind of change and go with the original text and also the same dialogue delivery and Same location I have to put in movie not a single thing I want to change this because it's a perfect no need to change that's why
10) Who would be your choice of actors to play the role of characters?
1) What connection do you see in the setting (“A country road. A tree.Evening.”) of the
play and these paintings?
In movie we find that countryside road and tree and evening is reflection of nothing to be done or nothingness represent.
All so in this painting the difference is the Sky colour and the tree background is also different.
2) The tree is the only important ‘thing’ in the setting. What is the importance of tree in both acts? Why does Beckett grow a few leaves in Act II on the barren tree - The tree has four or five leaves - ?
The tree is reflection of absurdity and it's apt for the background that's why tree is more important in this setting. They also try to make suicide and thy used tree but they are not getting success,
In second act we find that there is 2,3, leaves come it's reflect that nature has no connection with humanity or there is no connection between nature and human being just because nature has grown on itself nature never wait for anything and when time come nature will change that is the reflection of second act.
3) In both Acts, evening falls into night and moon rises. How would you like to interpret this ‘coming of night and moon’ when actually they are waiting for Godot?
In both the act we find that when night comes its reflection of there life how are absurd they are waiting for something is not come so finally the night is reflection of there lost or something that they want to achieve but then not achieve or then not get success,
And when the moon rise it's reflect that there is one hope that The Dark night will be end with this beautiful moon and there life darkness is also and just like night will end and morning comes so the moon is reflection of hope in Dark night.
4) The director feels the setting with some debris. Can you read any meaning in the contours of debris in the setting of the play?
5) The play begins with the dialogue “Nothing to be done”. How does the theme of ‘nothingness’ recurs in the play?
Just becauseboth the character do lots of activity to " kill time " but there is nothing happen in the life it represent that a failure person that never achieve something or that person's life is nothing or absurdity we find just because there is no hope for good thing happened that's why and after doing all the things still there nothing to be done y just because they are waiting for someone or like they want to achieve something in the life and they are in the way but still that don't find it that's why the life is " nothing to be done."
6) Do you agree: “The play (Waiting for Godot), we agreed, was a positive play, not negative, not pessimistic. As I saw it, with my blood and skin and eyes, the philosophy is: 'No matter what— atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, anything—life goes on. You can kill yourself, but you can't kill life." (E.G. Marshal who played Vladimir in original Broadway production 1950s)?
Yes just because its representation of absurdity and philosophy an existentialism, that's why display is not negative or Pessimistic just because it's a reflection of hope that at the end of the life there is good thing happened up till and of the last breath we have to wait for something which give us success peace honour or some kind of social important anything which we are waiting for.
7) How are the props like hat and boots used in the play? What is the symbolical significance of these props?
Hat represent the intellectuality , when boot represent the some physical or outside world Dzire, when Hat represent mentally or thinking philosophical touch that person who remember history and then facing so much problem just because he know the things which happened or what next come that's why so in that way we can interpret at that hat represent intellectuality and boots represent outside world Desire.
8) Do you think that the obedience of Lucky is extremely irritating and nauseatic? Even when the master Pozzo is blind, he obediently hands the whip in his hand. Do you think that such a capacity of slavishness is unbelievable?
Here I want to give some post colonial point of you just like this play come after Second World War so I want to give interpretation like pozzo was European countries and lucky represent third world which become free after Second World War they get independence but still the facing problem now they are habituated or the like the master that's why we see that after they become independent but somehow there is some sense or essence of colonization we still find after they become independent or we can say that the more love to their Masters after becoming Independents still they want their master to rule them.
9) Who according to you is Godot? God? An object of desire? Death? Goal? Success? Or . . .
Its depend on person just because on my point of you " godot is peace " just because this play come after Second World War so here we find that the player writer or at that times majorly literary work facing absurdity nothingness or westworld become hopeless that's why on my point of you godot is peace.
10 ) “The subject of the play is not Godot but ‘Waiting’” (Esslin, A Search for the Self). Do you agree? How can you justify your answer?
No I am not agree with this argument just because at the end of the play we find that both the character are waiting for godot and their motive want to meet godot and they are just " killing time " just because they are waiting so we think that waiting is the main theme but not at all just because finally the main theme is to achieve something in life or something for what is not in our life but we want that so it is like a struggle to achieve something that is the thing what I have understand.
11) Do you think that plays like this can better be ‘read’ than ‘viewed’ as it requires a lot of thinking on the part of readers, while viewing, the torrent of dialogues does not give ample time and space to ‘think’? Or is it that the audio-visuals help in better understanding of the play?
In the both the way we something missing if we reading then we have to imagine what was the condition when we are watching at that time we cannot pose oh no 1 dialogue just because dialogue delivery are going so fast we cannot focus on any one particular dialogue or we cannot stop there but if we read first play then we watch it's better to understand so on my point of view is both the thing we have to do then and then we can understand very well deeply.
12) Which of the following sequence you liked the most:
o Vladimir – Estragon killing time in questions and conversations while waiting
Vladimir and Estragon: The Had and the Boot
o Pozzo – Lucky episode in both acts
o Converstion of Vladimir with the boy
Conversation of Vladimir with the boy just because in Act 1 when boy come at that time Vladimir some conversation going on with boy and finally come to know that the boy is messenger of Godot and ask lots of questions and boy try to give answer and at the end
Vladimir say to boy that
" tell to Godot we are waiting for him ".
But when next time in next act we find that one more time boy come and same conversation going on and Vladimir asking same question and boy still give him same answer second time and finally Vladimir tell to the boy
" tell to Godot that I am waiting here ".....
13) Did you feel the effect of existential crisis or meaninglessness of human existence in the irrational and indifference Universe during screening of the movie? Where and when exactly that feeling was felt, if ever it was?
When second time godot is not coming so that time . Only boy come
14) Vladimir and Estragon talks about ‘hanging’ themselves and commit suicide, but they do not do so. How do you read this idea of suicide in Existentialism?
Suicide in existentialism we find that it's a symbolically represent the death by philosophy suicide means philosophical suicide at that moment person stop to thinking that is the suicide which we call philosophical suicide.
15) Can we do any political reading of the play if we see European nations represented by the 'names' of the characters (Vladimir - Russia; Estragon - France; Pozzo - Italy and Lucky - England)? What interpretation can be inferred from the play written just after World War II? Which country stands for 'Godot'?
Vladimir - Russia;
Estragon - France;
Pozzo - Italy and
Lucky - England
Godot - Germany ( Hitler )
16 )So far as Pozzo and Lucky [master and slave] are concerned, we have to remember that Beckett was a disciple of Joyce and that Joyce hated England. Beckett meant Pozzo to be England, and Lucky to be Ireland." (Bert Lahr who played Estragon in Broadway production). Does this reading make any sense? Why? How? What?
17) The more the things change, the more it remains similar. There seems to have no change in Act I and Act II of the play. Even the conversation between Vladimir and the Boy sounds almost similar. But there is one major change. In Act I, in reply to Boy;s question, Vladimir says:
"BOY: What am I to tell Mr. Godot, Sir?
VLADIMIR: Tell him . . . (he hesitates) . . . tell him you saw us. (Pause.) You did see us, didn't you?
How does this conversation go in Act II? Is there any change in seeming similar situation and conversation? If so, what is it? What does it signify?
In second act we find that VLADIMIR remember all the things what was happened yesterday or in Fist act but boy didn't remember all the things and now one more time he say that remember us but now in second time the dialogue exchange and he say remember only me that is the thing is changed.
Last I want to give one Gujarati devotional song example it's also represent of nothingness and existentialism.
" सिगरेट संग "
में अपनी तन्हाई सिगरेट के साथ बाँट ही रहा था।
कि, किसीने वो सुकून भी छीन लिया
वो बोला क्या रखा है इस नशे में
कर नशा हुनर का, तेरी सिगरेट से ज़्यादा नशीला है।
मेने मुस्कुराते हुए कहा यह मेरी सिगरेट है।
ये परियों की तरह धोखा नहीं देती।
फिर क्या था, बात ही दिया कि क्या अंतर
हेबेस सिगरेट ओर उस परियों में।
"मतलब परियों से अच्छी तो मेरी सिगरेट है।
जो मेरे होंठ से अपनी ज़िंदगी शुरू करती है।
और मेरे कदमों के निचे अपना दम तोड़ देती है।"
ये परीयों का koi ईमान, धर्म नहीं होता
इन्हें ख़्वाब में रहेना अच्छा लगता है।
ये हक़ीक़तों में कहा जिती है।
ये वो है जिन्हें सिर्फ नीले बादलों से
ही प्यार हो सकता है।
क्यूंकि वो उस काली राते पसंद नहीं
पर को उसे बताये, की काली रात ही तो
सच्ची है बाकी सब धोखा है।
वो हर पैमाने पर तुझे तोलेगी, रूआब, रूतबा,
शान-य-शौकत होना ज़रूरी है ओर एक बात
कहना भूल गया की खूबसूरत चहेरा होना ज़रूरी है।
ज़नाब इसे तो अच्छी मेरी सिगरेट है।
जो न मेरा धर्म पुछती है ना मेरा कर्म
ओर ना ही मेरी जाती और रूप
बस एक ही बात क्या आप तन्हा है
तो मुझे दोस्त बनालें आपकी तन्हाई दूर हो जायेगी।
सही तो बात है, जब भी इन परियोंसे
मिलोगे तो अपने आपसे अकेला पाएंगे।
जबभी सिगरेट से मिलोगे तो भरी
महफ़िलो तो कही दोस्तों के साथ तो
किसी के गम के साथ बटते हुये देखोगे।
ज़नाब ये मेरी सिगरेट है जो मेरे साथ जल जल
कर मर रही है।
ये उन परीयों की तरह नहीं जो जलाकर हमें चली जाती है।
"इस लिए "माही" कह गये करियो
संग सिगरेट जल्दी जइयो स्वर्ग
करियो संग "परी" तो ज़िन्दगी बनजावे नर्क"
They all have different point of view about existentialism.
Some believe in good and some not believe in God.

This all thing happened with youngster and there are certain reason behind it just like,
1) suicide
2) anguish
3) absurdity
4) patient
5) emotion
6) death
7) freedom
After understanding that life is absurd and then we tried to connect with God,
It is not possible if you are connected with caste or community you must be individual then and then we can connect with God.

The Existentialists refute the notion that God made the universe or our world or us,with any particular purpose in mind.
Absurdity
The search for answers in the an answer less world .
Since there's no teleology the world wasn't created for a reason and it doesn't Exist for a Reason.
If there's no reason for any of this then there are also no absolutely to abide by there's no cosmic justice, no Fairness, no order, no rvleas.

You might think that there is some authority you could look to for answers but all of the authorities you can think of are fake.
Those Authorities are really just people like you people who don't have any answers people who had to figure out for themselves how to live.
