'Bade Bhai sahib' chapter's summary

There would be very few people who would not know the name Munshi Prem Chand. He is perhaps the only name in Hindi literature to have captured the true picture of his era – the 1900s. His stories were always about liberating man from the bonds that gripped him whether it was social or economic. His stories were powerful and over the years, film and theater directors have brought alive some of his remarkable work with brilliant result.

Bade Bhai Sahib is one such play that tells a story of the relationship between two brothers -- Kamta Prasad (age 17) and Samta Prasad (age 12). Both live away from home in a hostel to study. Kamta, the elder brother, spends all his time reading. Such is his passion to understand each and every word written in the book that sometimes he stays in one class a couple of times just to grasp the meaning of what is written. Samta, the younger brother, is just the opposite of Kamta. He is more interested in playing with friends than in studying. But he is terrified of his elder brother and to please him starts studying the minute he sees him.  

Both the brothers try to prove that his way of living is correct that leads to comic situations all through the play. Very rarely does one come across a play where subjects like English, History, Geography and Science have been treated in a manner that makes you laugh. Things like ‘Where was the Battle of Panipat fought’? Why do we need to study History of the entire world? And how English is a very tough language makes the play a treat for those who love theater. While on the face of it, the play might appear dated but on closer examination what appeals is the love that the brothers share despite their different outlook towards life. The story is simple and told even in simpler words makes Bade Bhai Sahib endearing. The role played by the two brothers is captivating.  

Samta endears himself to the audience with his carefree attitude and his deep-rooted love for his elder brother. Kamta on his part manages to hold ground by his disciplined and restrained acting. However, what enthralls you is the climax. The scene where Kamta tells Samta that though their parents might never have gone to school or read even a single book, it is their experience of life that makes them educated. And however much they (Kamta & Samta) might study they can never match their parents’ intelligence. It stirs you and makes you think.  

Overall the two characters give vibrancy to the role that which they play with a mixture of compassion, anguish and tenderness.
