Abstract

There are many famous writers in the world of literature. However, not all creators' works win awards. If a work is to be distinguished, it must have something special about it. Na. Parthasarathy's Samuthaya Veethi novel won the Sahitya Academy Award in 1971. Its specialty is telling the life of art of drama. On the one hand, the statement that art is for art's sake, on the other hand, art should be an expression of the society and be useful for the progress of the society. Nothing worthless survives. The art of drama is something that is beneficial to the society. A feast for the eyes and ears, theater is a good medium to enlighten even the uneducated layman. The disability of this media is huge but it is being hidden and forgotten due to scientific development. t is the creator's wish to remedy this plight. He has highlighted it through his novel. The author shows the lack of involvement of the actor acting not only in drama. An actor should be disciplined. Must have acting skills, facial expressions and good Tamil pronunciation. Otherwise, the drama loses its focus. He alleges that theater hides behind women as another scourge of theatre. In other words, the author portrays the woman as an object and by using her to establish himself as a celebrity. The morality of the actor comes into question here. The world of theater is based on money and fame. Theater actors also take pride in imitating film actors' speech patterns, facial expressions, etc. rather than showing off their talent. Instead of acting with his role, he is competing with the protagonist. This essay explores such a trend of dynamic drama that conveys the idea deeply and clearly.
