Question

what is character-sketch of Madhav , Gheesu and Budhiya in the short story " The shroud " by Munshi premchand? Elaborate.

Answer 1

Answer:

The characters of Madhav and Gheesu are depicted as examples of selfishness, irresponsibility, and immorality in the story, The Shroud, by Premchand.

They always felt that they deserve much more in this world and only thought about themselves. They were lazy and did not do any work.

Gheesu also became a drunkard.

They did not even bother about Budhia who relentlessly worked for them, and was treated so poorly. Even after her death, they both spent the money that they collected for her funeral instead of doing her some rituals. Both of them behaved so inhumanely.
