Byau: A Garhwali Drama -part of Temperance Movement 

(Review of Garhwali drama ‘Byau’ (1995) by Om Prakash Semwal)

                                       Bhishma Kukreti
                       
       Om Prakash Semwal wrote and staged many Garhwali dramas for social awareness among students and community people. ‘Byau’ is one of fine dramas written by playwright Om Prakash Semwal making people aware of the evils of liquor consumption.  ‘Byau’ was staged in September 1995 in (Old) Chamoli Garhwal district of Uttarakhand.
     These days, it is very common all over India people take opportunities for taking liquor. The addicted people do not see the time and the situation. If there is a marriage Nyoto night offering of liquor is a must from the side of the host. When there is “Haldihath/Bbana ritual the males find the reason for taking liquor. When there is the start of the marriage procession the people find ground for enjoying liquor consumption. For liquor takers, the Manglachar,  Gotrachar, Lagan, Jaimala, Gaidan rituals are the reasons for taking alcohol.
        Playwright Om Prakash Semwal shows in the drama ‘Byau’ about the dramas of these liquor addicted people finding excuses for taking liquor in the early hours of sunrise and late night. Semwal successfully shows the results of taking liquor at the time of marriage procession and the effects of liquor on the human mind that drunken persons start misbehaving with older people or start teasing girls without any hesitation about social norms and humanitarian norms. Semwal ends the drama with a bang on liquor consumption.
       The dialogues and characters are from the daily life of Garhwalis all over the world. 
 The drama ‘Byau’ by O.P Semwal is part of the temperance movement in Garhwal. The drama ‘Byau’ reminds us the temperance movement of Australia (1830s); height of the temperance movement in Canada (1920); the initiation of the temperance movement in Iris by priest Theobald Mathew of 1838, the first temperance movement in Bay of Islands of New Zealand in 1836; temperance movement as part of the independence movement of Sri Lanka; temperance as a mass movement of the united kingdom in 19th century; temperance movement of U.S. America in 1846; temperance movement in Russia in late 19th century; temperance movement in 1850 in Norway; temperance movement in late 19th century that many playwrights wrote dramas against liquor consumption.  Tinchri Mai’s movement against liquor consumption in the late twentieth century in Garhwal is the famous temperance movement of Garhwal.

Bal Narayan: A Lyrical –Dance Garhwali Mythological Drama
(Review of Garhwali Lyrical Dance Drama ‘Bal Narayan’ (1990) written by Dr. Bhagwati Prasad Mishra)

                                     By: Bhishma Kukreti


   Dr. Bhagwati Prasad Mishra is a famous poet who wrote a lyrical Garhwali drama and was published in Garh Aina (12th May to 20th May 1990). The drama is mythological drama. The God or lord Vishnu incarnates himself in various forms as per the need of people's security, safety and deities’ safety.
      There are many stories and twist in lyrical drama. Therefore, the lyrical, dance drama of the mythological subject contains the audience.  There is the thrill, chivalry, conflicts between deity and God; spirituality, rage, jealousy, philosophy, love, etc in this Garhwali mythological drama.
                         The drama writer uses lyrics in place of prose dialogues and narration.  The example of lyrical dialogues and narration is as under:
( नारायण )
त्वे जना पापी कु करदू छौं मी कटान
औ धौं मीरा पास लमडान्दूछौं चट्टान
अबि छमा मंगली त द्योलू छ्मादान
छोड़ देवलु पापी तेरी, ज्वा च प्यारी जान
(सहस्त्र )
अरे कण सा सी केटा अज्ञान
देनी छै में ठुला सि ज्ञान
बोल्यु तू आज मेरु मान
निथर गववै जाण एक प्राण
ले-लड़ाई -चलौ जरा बाण
अब त कची भुजी तेरी खाण
( युद्ध हुंद सहस्त्र कवच का नौ सौ निन्यायव कवच टूटी जान्दन ..
सहस्त्र सूर्य देव का पास भगद )
  Certainly the dance-lyrical mythological drama is an entertaining drama.

Dwipalya: A Garhwali Morality Play (seeing is better than believing in words) 
(Review of a Garhwali drama ‘Dwipalya’ (1989) written by Kukreti)

                                Bhishma Kukreti



       ‘Dwipalya’ a Garhwali drama is published in Garh Aina (Year-2, issue -310, 18th June 1989, page -3)
           Jeetu is shocked when he comes to know that his own younger brother Nathi pushed the Wad (a small demarcation or petitioning stone between two farms) to increase his portion of fertile and plain farmland.
  There is a quarrel between two brothers and they are ready to beat physically each other. When Sudama opens the real secrete both are shocked.
   The setting is very simple and the setting is what happens in rural Garhwal of old age. The dialogues are from day-to-day life. The quarrel for ‘Wad Sarkan ‘(shifting of demarking stone in own favor) scene is also common (there was an opportunity for the playwright for more sharp quarrel as happens in daily life). The shocking news also happens many times.
  The drama is a mini-drama and the director may add many more scenes connected to the theme.  In the end, there is a moral story without preaching speeches. The drama is interesting.

Bhat: A Garhwali Stage Play Exposing Hypocrisy in Caste System of Upper Caste Brahmins

(Review of Garhwali Stage Play ‘Bhat’ (December 1996) by Playwright Om Prakash Semwal)

                                        By: Bhishma Kukreti

[
         There has been a tendency of creating stage plays or dramas for lambasting hypocrisy in society in every community and every language.
               ‘Coming Home’ by playwright George Halitzka is a drama about hypocrite mother taking alcohol drink regularly but preaching children not to take alcohol; Senior Trip by the same playwright about hypocrisy; ‘Tartuffe’ drama by playwright Jean-Baptiste (1664) is about a hypocrite man pretending as a deeply religious and moral man; Henrik Ibsen exposing hypocrisy in his stage plays or dramas; are a couple of examples of dramas or stage plays exposing hypocrisy in each community or in each language.
    The stage play or mini-drama ‘Bhat’ written by playwright Om Prakash Semwal was on the stage in 1996 in a school district Chamoli Garhwal now Rudraprayag.   Two Brahmins Bhawani and Geeta from the same village are close friends and share rice mutton, and an alcoholic drink together in a town restaurant. They don’t mind taking ‘Bhat-Shikar (rice –mutton) from the same plate and taking drinks from the same glass.  However, when the time comes to sit together for taking meal on a common platform of the village marriage party Bhavani refuses to attend for marriage party as Geeta is coking Bhat (rice). Geeta’s mother was from a lower caste Brahmin.
   ‘Bhat’ drama is an educational drama and is aimed at a young student audience. The language and events of the stage play are simple to engage the teenage students. The student audience definitely would feel awkward about watching the exposure of the hypocrisy of two types of Brahmins.

                        Dagdi: A Social and Family Conflict based Garhwali Drama

 (Review of a Social-family Conflicts base Garhwali Drama ‘Dagdi ‘(1998) by Om Prakash Semwal)

                                             By Bhishma Kukreti
   Om Prakash Semwal is a multitalented literature creator of the Garhwali language. Semwal is a story writer, poet, and playwright of the Garhwali language.
     In the age of when all national television and core regional channels, national and core regional periodicals are busy showing negative and as if everything going in doomed Om Prakash Semwal comes there to show hope for every Indian through his notable short dramas.
      Om Prakash Semwal wrote a social family conflict base Garhwali drama ‘Dagdi ‘staged in August 1998 in a school of (Old) Chamoli Garhwal.
      The drama is about conflicts, and conspiracy among Mundeet (close to one family to another family by blood) embers. There was very cordial relation among the various family members of a Mundeet of Saunu and Gundaru. However, due to the selfish intention of Naudi and Murkhalya, there is division among members of Mundeet.   
           However, when Naudi shows his real character Murkhalya was under threat. Murkhalya finds another way to get rid of Naudi.
   The social family conflict base Garhwali drama ‘Dagdi is a short drama and Om Prakash wrote the drama keeping teenage students and young students in mind. The drama shows effectively the self-interest of minority members can harm the unity of families and society. The dialogues are having a full influence on the Rudraprayag region and nobody should mind as even the knowledgeable Garhwali literature creators will be happy to get newer words from Rudraprayag and Tungnath regions.
  The story flow is fast.
  Concussively, the drama is useful for teenage and young students for understanding the loss by tension among families of a Mundeet.

Naukari: A Garhwali Drama about Exploiting own Relatives

(Review of Garhwali drama ‘Naukari’ (1999) by playwright Om Prakash Semwal)

                                     Bhishma Kukreti



               One of the exclusive factors of prose literature –stories and dramas by Om Prakash Semwal is that the writer is of the firm opinion that there are many opportunities in rural Garhwal in terms of wealth earning.  The ’Naukari ‘drama written by Om Prakash Semwal was staged in December, 1999 in a school of (Old) Chamoli Garhwal now, in Rudraprayag.
        The drama is aimed at the young generation who is aspiring for employment in cities and is dreaming of leaving the village. Mangtu is studying in the tenth standard in the village school. Mangtu’s father wants to be married to a Kamgati girl (expert in agriculture works) after getting a suitable job in the city. The mother of Mangtu wishes that Mangtu is married to a rich family and that their family gets a dowry. She is not worried about the job for Mangtu.
      Nartu who is working in Delhi comes to the village and assures his uncle that he will arrange the best job for Mangtu in Delhi. Nartu takes his cousin Mangtu to Delhi for getting him the best job. However, Mangtu is shocked to see the exploiting behavior of Nartu.
   The mini-drama ’Naukari ‘is very simple and shows the exploitation of unskilled young men by all. The story and dialogues match with the situation of Garhwal.

                      Pagal: a Garhwali Drama depicting the harmfulness of Blind Faith Rituals 

                                Bhishma Kukreti
 ]


        Om Prakash Semwal wrote a Garhwali drama ‘Pagal’ and staged the same in a school of Chamoli Garhwal in December 2000. Om Prakash aims the drama to all ages people.
                  Ramu works out of the village and lives there while his family lives in the village. Ramu’s wife is due to deliver her fourth child. His old parents are separate from their daughter-in-law. Ramu’s wife delivers a child but dies after some time. Ramu’s wife became mad. Ramu starts visiting Bakya (Future teller). His family performs all folk rituals but the madness of his wife enhances. A village doctor advises Ramu. But it is too late for taking the doctor’s advice.
            Om Prakash wrote the drama for awakening people that when there is a need for a physician they should visit physicians and when the need is for rituals they should perform rituals.
   The drama is simple and there is no newness in the drama from my point of view as a critic but is useful for social awareness.
