# Sairandhri # 

Vinod joshi is famous poet in Gujarati literature. His most recent creation "sairandhri", this poetry created in Australia. This poetry based on Mahabharata, the woman, who live a life with lost of identity. 

 Dropadi the character of Mahabharata has various names  like Agnikanya, dropadi, krishna etc. 

Why he choose " Sairandhri "? 

 The poet vinod joshi said that " Sairandhri " is a woman., but when we see as widely  one woman, who hide herself and live life as sairandhri and also said that we all are live lives with someone, somewhere with hide ourselves. 

 She lost her own identity and live life as sairandhri that's attract him (vinod joshi) and he seems that it's symbols whole human beings, in day to day life we  are sometimes,someone, somewhere manage and make  our hidden identity. Who is when we behaves and who is in our hidden is the big puzzle. 

#The form of sairandhri:

 In "sairandhri" he mingled the Sanskrit and native Dialect. He depicted Mahabharata's portion of viratparv. During her agnatvas period she became the easiest(servent) of king virat's queen subeshna named sairandhri. During this period pandava(his husbands) live also in that palaca in spite of that she can not meet, even she can not represent herself.

 One woman, whose creation or birth is for to became the Hastinapur's queen, who is now ordinary king's queen's servent, that is her personality's different aspect. She live that type of life like her fortune. Vinod joshi said that when we see in different, we all are somewhere, somehow manage ourselves and then far away from ourselves and our original identity is loss. So, that's why this is the poem of "lost of identity".

 Sairandhri is servent but in real her hidden Agnikanya, Ojasvanti, is still not deid. So how she painfully suppressed that things she can not share with others. 

 When she isas a Dropadi, she can take help of Krishna and pandava and in various events Bheem also help her, but here he seems that her personality is there, she helps herself and protect herself and to be proud on herself as a woman, the poem should be like that, that's why in this poem there is no krishna, Bheem etc. In this poem only woman. That's why in this poem we can't find name as Dropadi, sairandhri and krishna thats only signified as woman. That's all representative of all woman , in this angle and point of veiw poet wants to show and so sairandhri is put here.

 His sairandhri loves karna, this point of view is poet's own not taken from Mahabharata, Arjun is her second choice.
