Reading Notes: Chitra A
Bibliography: Chitra by Rabindranath Tagore
Scene 1:
Chitra, who is a woman, was raised to be a man since his dad was not able to sire a boy. She ran into Arjuna in the forest and instantly fell in love. For the first time, she hated being raised a boy. Arjuna, however, swore a life of celibacy for the next 12 years so he cannot be her husband even though she asked. So she went to the god of love Madana and Vasanta and asked to be extremely beautiful for one day so she can wow Arjuna. They instead made her super beautiful for a year.
Scene 2:
Chitra, now a beautiful woman, runs into Arjuna in the forest. Arjuna is extremely smitten and wants to get married but Chitra knows this is just an illusion and tells him to go away.
Scene 3:
Chitra and the gods talk about why she didn't bag Arjuna.
Scene 4:
Chitra and Arjuna talk about how their love is temporary with some COOOOOL metaphors
Scene 5:
The gods talk about how Chitra is taking a long time to have a kid
Scene 6:
Another cool metaphor about how Chitra's love is fleeting
Scene 7:
The gods tell Chitra this is her last night to be hot
Scene 8:
Arjuna runs into some villagers who said they're in danger because Chitra went off on a pilgrimage somewhere. Arjuna, unaware that the woman that he's been spending time with is Chitra tells her about this and how he needs to leave and save the villagers. Arjuna also wants to learn more about this Chitra. Chitra then asks Arjuna a hypothetical question of if she was Chitra how would he react. Arjuna then says he doesn't ever feel close to her.
Scene 9:
Chitra reveals her true self to Arjuna and tells him that she will raise a son just like him. Arjuna then says he is satisfied with his life.
