About the Book
Galpa Hekim Saheb Galpa Noi Natok (Bengali Version) is a thoughtful critical study of Galpal Hekim Saheb, one of the most remarkable plays by the celebrated contemporary playwright Manoj Mitra. More than a simple biographical portrayal, the play presents a profound exploration of power, politics, humanity, and social responsibility through the character of Hekim Saheb.
The narrative reveals how the compassionate and dedicated physician Hekim becomes entangled in the rivalry and political struggles between competing powers. While those in authority pursue their own interests, public welfare and healthcare are neglected, leaving ordinary people deprived of essential support and justice. Despite immense physical and mental suffering, Hekim remains steadfast in his commitment to serving humanity, embodying the ideals of selflessness, courage, and social responsibility.
In this book, Apurba Dey offers a detailed analysis of the play from multiple perspectives, examining its dramatic structure, social relevance, political implications, and symbolic dimensions. The study highlights the enduring significance of Manoj Mitra’s work and its critique of systems that sacrifice human welfare for power. An important resource for students, researchers, theatre enthusiasts, and lovers of Bengali drama, this book provides valuable insights into one of the most compelling plays in modern Bengali theatre.
