Main Article Content
Abstract
Good relationship is an essence for happy and peaceful life as water is necessary for existence of living beings. Extensive workloads and lust for huge earnings compel many professionals, private and government employees to be stuck with their duties for extra hours in the cosmopolitan cities; aloof from their family, relatives and friends; with them they should spend some time to sustain good relationship but they have no time to do so. Contrary, confusion and doubt has penetrate in their minds that disturb many people and force human beings to stay in perturbed circumstances though proper discussion restore their relationship with family particularly. They should spare time at home to share their ups and downs with wife, mother, sisters, brothers and other relatives in the high-tech cities and towns. Therefore, an appreciable relationship has taken a resentful situation when Professor and Memsahib become incompetent and careless to maintain their life-bonding relationship in the Marathi play Mickey and the Memsahib that is written by Satish Alekar (1949-). Professor has been doing research on the mouse named Mickey; so he has a hectic life of taking care of the mouse, scrutinizing research papers that are generally submitted by his research scholars, preparing lectures in the university, maintaining official works because he has been playing role of HOD for years. Memsahib is an Associate Professor who is always busy in her works. They do not negotiate nor give sufficient time to each other that results loneliness, sadness and dilemma.
