Question

character of chandri in samskara​

Answer 1

$\sf{\underline\blue{Answer:-}}$

Firstly, there is Chandri, a low-caste woman who is lesser than wife of the dead man, Naranappa. She symbolizes all women of her caste and class. She is the most discussed character after Naranappa in the novel and also more critical. ... Her low-caste status would pollute the Brahmins by her presence.

Answer 2

Explanation:

U. R. Anantha Murthy is one of the masters in the art of characterization in the history of Indian-English literature. In the novel, "Samskara", his characterization proves his mastery. Chandri, one of the major women characters in the novel is portrayed beautifully by the author.

Chandri Cameron is the handpicked concubine of Naranappa quite remarkable for her beauty and sex-appeal. In the novel, we find that many Brahmins of Agrahara are attracted by her charm and grace. This very clearly shows the characteristics of the Brahmins. They apparently oppose Chandri and Naranappa's relationship and tag her as a prostitute but they themselves are longing for her appealing body.
