Here I want to share my view on his poem " Sairandhri " based on character of Draupadi from Mahabharata .
∆ " Sairandhri " :-
This poem was growing in Australia . "Sairandhri " is published in 2018 . A metrical poem composed in Prabandha from with seven cantos , 49 chapters and 1800 lines . It is based on Draupadi , one of the characters of Hindu Mahabharata and depicts a distinct world of Draupadi's thoughts and feeling as a woman during her exiles , using various meters like chopai and Dohra . Critic Radheshyam Sharma notes the poem for its musicality , figurative language and it's depiction of shringara ( the romantic sentiments ) . In this poem we find that Vinod Joshi used so many sanskrit words .
∆ Lost Identity :-
" Sairandhri " is a poem of lost identity . Acclaimed for the elegant female sensibility in the sound , rhymes and rhythm of his songs . She find her identity , in such environment of non- indifferent nature and its intinity . Here Joshi seems to be heralding the sense of organic unity and pathos .In the poem we find that Sairandhri loved Karna , the son of Surya (sun) . And Surya wouldn't leave her in the end . The liminality between " desire " and " devotion " has moved into the resonating infinite skies with shifting horizons.
Thank you....
