Several
ageless novels have been wonderfully dramatized and
as such are more than relevant to the world of drama or
theatre. The immortal wizard of Bengali novels and a household
name in Bengal – Sri Sarat Chandra Chattopaddhaya, has gifted
us with some ethereal works which have been dramatized at
different times. Some of the spectacular ones which were
dramatized by Sri. Deb Narayan Gupta are 'Ramer Sumati', 'Bindur Chhele',
'Anupamar Prem', 'Nishkriti', 'Kashinath', 'Parineeta', 'Srikanta' etc. The renowned Star Theatre had
hosted the dramatized version of the unique novel 'Ekak-Dashak-Satak'
by Bimal Mitra.
Tarashankar himself, had dramatized some of his novels viz.
'Kabi', 'Arogya Niketan' etc. Au reste, 'Saheb-Bibi-Gulam',
the unique novel of Bimal Mitra, had been dexterously dramatized
by Sachin Sengupta. Sri. Jyoti Bandopaddhaya had converted
'LankaKapat' by Jarashandha into its dramatized version.
Similarly, Sri. Barun Dasgupta had converted Samaresh Basu's
'Aborto' into a wonderful drama for the stage. Sri. Mani
Dutta had done a scintillating work by dramatizing Smt.
Asha Purna Devi's 'Sashi Babur Sangsar' – a sui generis
novel by its own right.
