Answer:
The play, written in the 1950s, is a humorous and satirical depiction of the status of the mother in the family.
It raises very poignant social issues of women, as housewives, being taken for granted by the family. The husband, son and daughter—all take the mother for granted. She gets no respite and no gratitude for all that she does. The day, she refuses to attend to them, they are outraged.
These issues are genuine, especially in a country like India where there is still a gender bias. The housewife is supposed to perform all the chores of the house as her duty. The scenario is now, however, showing some signs of change although we still have a long way to go before we achieve equality.
