Question- Analyse the story "Two Lady Rams'.
Answer -
The title of the story itself sets the tone. Here we have a title in which the word lady is attached to the noun Ram, which creates a strangeness quite familiar to Indian car. When we proceed with the story, we realize that the two lady Ram refer to the two wives of Lalla Jhinda Ram, a contractor, who was knighted by his Majesty's Government.
Lalla's decision to call both his wives Lady Ram was the result of his attempt to pacify the waging war between his two wives to attain the title of Lady Ram, which began with his asking the younger wife to attend a Garden Party to which he was invited by his Governor himself.
The elder wife Sukhi, implying 'sukh' meaning 'comfort' is unable to give Lalla his her to propagate his lineage, which made him marry Sakuntala, his second wife. Sukhi brought with her a huge dowry which helped launch Lalla Jhinda Ram's social career and later success.
The younger wife, Sakuntala, on the other hand brought a breeze of fresh romance into his otherwise unromantic life, which reminds the reader of the mythological story of Dushyant and Shakuntala.
In this story Anand uses mock-heroic style in which the situation otherwise deemed as absurd are elevated to the level of being heroic, thus creating as atmosphere of ridicule and hilarity.
One theme that is consistent through out the story is that of the colonialism. Anand here shows his contempt towards the colonial government, and makes use of inflated language to ridicule both the government and its state functionaries.
The invitation that Lalla Jhinda Ram receives mentions only one Lady Ram while he has two wives. The Indian Penal Code imposed by the British existed along with the Hindu marriage law, which allowed men to marry more than once. Here Anand points out the absurdity in the law that does not specify if more than one wife can be given the title of lady, if the husband receive knighthood or any other such title.
