social issue of remarriage of Men and the response received by Women.
Though such responses vary country to country but somehow they result

realities related to the issue to the readers and to let them get through the
actions which were practiced centuries back, and still exists ever beyond the
geographical boundaries. In the article, the play is assessed in the light of
psychological theories of personality and related traits presented by Sigmund
Freud and Carl Jung.
