Being an uneducated lower middle class woman, with no means of earning a livelihood, she represents a large chunk of the female population who go through life as financial dependents on men. This gives rise to a dual personality in such women, sycophancy toward the male holding the purse strings and tyranny toward the other dependents. Ma’s word’s are proof of this. While Om (the earning member) is addressed with endearments such as “my only delight”, Jaya, her daughter in law and Jeetu, her younger unemployed son, are abused. “ho-you”,”barren dog”, ”pimping rascal”, “soul’s disgrace” are some of the words she uses for them. By the end of the play Ma is “through caring for or about anybody “. Even when the guards drag Jeetu away(mistakenly) for his organs, she is interested only in watching T.V. The distaste which women feel for their restricted life is well dramatized in the method that Ma chooses to escape from this kind life. She buys a Super Deluxe Video Coach. Once she lies down in it tubes are attached to a recycling and bio-feeding processor that takes care of all her needs. Ma, who appears a tyrant but is herself a victim of a repressive patriarchal society chooses to cut herself off mentally and physically from it. She chooses total silence as a route of escape.
