Write a note on the character of Aunty Roopwati?
Answers
Answer:
Aunt Roopwati was a beautiful lady, still glowing at the age of 70. She was a freedom fighter. Her beauty created a chaos amongst the freedom fighters. She came from a well-known family and graduated from a reputed college.
Answer:
Monoj Das’s story The Misty Hour presents Aunty Roopwati with rich assortment of virtues. The first quality of Aunty that comes to the front is her beauty. The bloom of her cheeks at seventy bears enough prove of that. In addition to this Aunty also had the internal qualities of being smart and dashing. She came from a well-known family and was also a graduate. She also demanded that she had a good voice and could sing like a shehnai.
However, Aunty Roopwati’s fluency as a speaker was her hallmark. This made her move ahead of other ladies from respectable families who joined the freedom struggle. Thus Aunty was always vocal against the British Raj during the freedom movement. Even after Independence she remained a vibrant speaker. This time her target was her colleagues. Because of these virtues, people knew that she was destined to reach great heights of glory.
Aunty Roopwati’s character had only one fault. This was her habit of extolling herself. She said that many of the poems in literature were written for her only. She also asserted that many budding leaders of the time had been dying to marry her. This habit of Aunty drew much criticism. This allowed even her inferiors to rise above her in politics.
Aunty’s Roopwati’s habit of extolling herself also reveals her lack of cleverness. She couldn’t, like other clever persons, praise herself using others. This lack of cleverness also showed up in her habit of getting provoked with a little flattery. For this the younger leaders could use Aunty to criticize the senior ones. This lack of understanding capacity made her select Jagadishji. The failed relationship between them and Aunty’s attempt to get close to Chnmoy Babu revealed how Aunty was a victim of illusions.
