• Video-1  What is Existentialism?

First video about Existentialism's explanation and according to Kierkegaard. He believes that philosophical thought are same. Triangle with  Individuality, Freedom and passions. Possibility of God and it happens after thinking. Whose attention will be attracted to a subject like suicide, Anguish, Thanks, Absurdity, Passion, Emotions their freedom or even despair.

• Video -2.  The myth of Sisyphus: The Absurd Reasoning:-

Camus first start this essay " The Absurd Reasoning". In this he wrote about one truly philosophical problem that is suicide.

People think that life is absurd and that’s why one should die. Is it dying a real solution? No it is not. Life is absurd and meaningless but life is for living. There is also one idea of every human’s fascination of death. It is shown in video that human wants divorce from life and wants to make death a mistress. But I like the idea that how every one wants death and how everyone also fears death.

• Video -3. The myth of Sisyphus: The notion of  Philosophicaly is sisuicide
• . But here it is said that there is human and there is world. Both will collide and then absurdity will take place. Imagine of there is no human being in the world.

• Video - 4. Dadaism  Nihilism:-

From this video I like the idea of dadaism and it's quest for change. And also the Nietzsche's discription about the movement.

• The Scarlet Letter:.......

                 "આસું સ્ત્રી ના હથિયાર છે".

Hester's child name is baby girl pearl.  Than he was immediately died.  So  then again Hester was lived alone with her daughter.

Example of " Rama and Sita" .story

•  Kya Kehna movie:

 This movie is old but example of  The Scarlet letter. Movie starting  happy family. In this  movie protegonist character is Priya.  Priyai good girl, clever student during her schooling. She was lived  alone  after her comlited high school education. Than she was coming to her house.  When she was  college time,   she loved with rahul.  Rahul belong to high class family. He  didn't really loved to priya. But rahul didn't think so.  He wanted to take revenge to priya  brother Viky .  That why  he used to priya.   Priya's family is very good. Than  priya  become pragnant . At that time  rahul  denied for taken responsibly of priya  and her  child. Then priya dight alone  with society. Then she was gave  birth of her child.at that time her femily denied her. And at the movie end of  Ajay proposed her and Rahul also want toarry with her. But she accept Ajay proposal and movie become happy ending. In last her family  was full support.her brother was  always with her. In last her father happy for her child .

3.What is the role played by society in Hester's life?.

 In the novel we know that society never accept Adultery of Hester. When dose not ready to say a out child's father name at that time there reflected mind of puritan people.  Moreover, The puritan  society forcefully wearing Scarlet letter of "A". It's  means that society as a woman  gave  punishment of Adultery of her self. But looking in their  society.

4. What is the role played by society in Priya's life?.

Priya is student and she lived Rahul  and she become  pragnant. Here conflict between middle class society and high class society. Rahul belong to high class  family and priya belong to middle class family. So  Rahul's family specially his mother didn't accept priya.  Than she was  become pregnant without marriage society hated her. Even her parent are not sporting her . Then as loving relation with family then her family given sport her . In the college  function played drama on Priya's life and Everyone laughed her. At that time priya gives speech and everyone claping her courage but if we analyse society so we can know it is not easy as like priya convinced  society

5. Compare and contrast the male character, Roger Chillingworth,arthur Dimmesdale,Rahul and Ajay?

The male character  Roger Cillingworth, Arthur Dimmesdale  in the novel. And in movie  Rahul and Ajay. All male character are completely different from each other. Roger Cillingworth is Hester's Husband and Arthur Dimmesdale is Hester's liver. Dimmesdale deeply lived Hester but he couldn't able to publically accept her. Something Rahul couldn't able to accept priya in publically.  But one  thing  is contrast  Dimmesdale is prist while Rahul character like Frailty man. He is not honest like Dimmesdale . Other character  like Roger Cillingworth and Ajay character is completely different from. Other character Cillingworth is not accepted her wife because jis wife become pregnancy of Dimmesdale's child. While Ajay character is like  honest and ki d person who deeply lived priya even she was pregnant of  rahul"s child  although Ajay ready to accept her.

6.Compare and contrast the 'scaffold scene in 'The Scarlet Letter' and a year- end performance in kya kehna in which a group of student perfroms a play on Priya's and her pregnancy'.

'The Scarlet Letter'   in 'The Scaffold scene" and year" end  performance in Kya Kehna movie . Both  situation it's like aane but something is differ like aur the end of novel Hester didn't  give her liver name and ant suggestion to peopl. When  Kya Kehna  end  is movie  in the stage priya tried herself. She hasn't do e wrong decision to giving birth of child thar thing is not her.

7. What are the reason that Arthur Dimmesdale and Rahul di not come forward to accept their fatherhood ? How do you they differ and what are the similaritie?.

In the novel Arthur Dimmesdale had dear  of society and religion . Because he mang time talked about morality but when society know reality of Arthur so for him live in society is difficult. In the  movie Rahul was playboy type character and he was a student of college. I noticed one thing that Rahul don't truly love of priya but he say that by mistake she becouse pregnant. Another reason is Rahul came from high family and priya come from middle class family. So jis mother say that she is not appropriate for merried kind of things. But i. The movie Rahul remaining natural so that i can say that Rahul's live is list of body, not true love with priya.

8.what is the role played by Cillingworth in Hester's life? Why do you think he wantedto take revenge on Hestee and Dimmesdale?

Cillingworth is Husband of. Hester.

 Cillingworth played enemy role in  Hester's life.  He wanted to take revenge on Heastwr and Dimmesdale .  Because he tired to konw who is Hestee lived for this reason he sexually heresment mattube. And he killed one person jis belife that man is Dimmesdale.

9. What is the role played by Rahul's mother in Priya's life? Why do you think she wants to take revenge on priya?.

 Rahul belong to rich class family. So jis mother didn't accept Priya as dauther in law and  she wanted to take revenge on priya. Because she believed her son isn't doing wrong thing at the first metring even Priya's  brother bit  her  son and  she believed Priya is not their status girl.

10. Write a note on class difference in Kya Kehna?.

  In the movie Kya Kehna two class conflict Priya belong to middle class family and Rahul belong to rich class femily. That why jis mother not accept Priya as  daughter in law si there are can see class conflict.

11.Why do you think  the director has lifted the character of Ajay  to the ideal state? Is it possible in real life ?What are the reason of your Yes or No?.

According to me  real life of may be possible so also impossible as i said that according 5 my observation on society.

12.How do you are Hester and Priya as. Individual?.

I see Priya's character stronger than Hester because at the end of the movie Priya herself tired to convince people .she hasn't done wrong thing to giving birth of child while Hester couldn't able to justify on society.

13.Write a criti5 note on the end of the movie and the novel. Why do you think the novelist has not given happy endinng?

Both  movie based on something but dealing with different ideas. I think may be Hathrone represent at that time society real image . Therefore he has not given happy ending of novel.
