Macbeth is a tragedy by william shakespeare.it was probably first performed in 1606. It is very significant and remarkable work of Shakespeare. It is play. It is Shakespeare's shortest tragedy.
let's see some my overviews on this film adaption:- When some literal work's take as some literal leval aa a film, tv siries that's called adaptation. First of all I will talk about the adaption of Maqbool film which based on Shakespeare's Macbeth.
Maqbool-
In 2003 this film is Indian crime drama by vishal Bhardwaj. In it pankaj kapoor, irfan khan tabbu, and other actors play the role.this film is based on Shakespeare' s drama Macbeth.
The plot of the film is based on that of macbeth with regard to events and characterisations.The film did not well performed at the box office, but won director vishal bhardvaj interanatonal acclaim. Apart from directing it, he had also conposed the background score and songs for the film. Bhardwaj than moved to addapting William Shakespeare's othello in his 2006 film Omkara which won him commercial as well as critical success.
Let's see about film in short:-
The film is based on William shakespeare's Macbeth, with the Mumbai underworld as its backdrop. Main character Maqbool is the right hand man of Jahangir khan(Abba ji), a powerful underworld don. Maqbool is greatful and feels a close connection and personal inhebidence to Abba ji. Seeing their close realtionship, but also sensing Maqbool's ambition, two corrupt policemen predict that Maqbool will soon take over the reins of the Mumbai underworld from Abba ji.
Nimmi is Abba ji's mistress, but she and Maqbool are secretly in love. Nimmi encourages and persuded him to kill abba ji to take over as don. Maqbool is torn between his love for Nimmi and his loyality to Abba ji, but he is in bedtime with next time to him. Maqbool gets away with the murder and takes over as Don.just as planneed.but both he and Nimmi are hunted by guilt, seeing abbaji's ghost and unable to wash the blood from their hands.
There is also suspicion, within the gang, of Maqbool's role in the death of abba ji, and eventually the lovers meet a tragic end.
Let's see what kind of adaptions in Macbeth and Maqbool :-
1) look, in Movie Maqbool is loyal from Abbaji so after kiling him he and Nimmi suffering from guilt. And same in macbeth Macbeth don't ready to king Duncan but force for lady macbeth he killed but after killing they are suffering from guilt.
2) in Maqbool Abbaji's mistess Nimmi secretly love with Maqbool that's change. She is him lover. In macbeth lady bacbeth is his wife.
3) in movie Nimmi gives birth to son that couldn't been either abbji's or Maqbool's.And after birth of her baby she died. And other side in play lady macbeth committed suiside.
4) one thing that the role of witches from the drama is taken by two corrupt policemen. in play macbeth believe in profecy of three witches that he become a king of scotland. In the same in play Maqbool belived in two corrupt policemen. They say to him that he takes place of Abbaji in underworld. They are not passive fortune tellers. In fact they are active in manipulating the future events.
5) like lady Macbeth Nimmi also force to Maqbool to killed Abbaji. Here some changes that Maqbool commit this sin because he loved with Nimmi and after Abbji's death nimmi and Abbaji's place is his.
6) In play when Macbeth asks about his death, witches tells him that jungles arrival at his palace. And similar prediction used here. On Maqbool quary to policemen tells him that sea's arrival at his palace will is died. Such a prophecy on literal leval is impossible to turn true. But the customs come to maqbool's place to arrest him,due to his smuggling from sea route.
7) in drama, Macbeth had halluciantion of Banquo during a meet at his castel.
In the movie this scene was well in cooperated. It was a time of one of the death rituals of Abbaji, everyone was there. And the policemen bring the dead body of Kaka. Maqbool here, halluciantion that Kaka wakes up from death and disclosed this evil intentions.
Thus, the film becomes a great work of art which combines a classical tragedy with modern day scenario. It combines universally appealing issues of human ambition and local issues of collaboration of politics and criminal world. Its pure amalgamation of classical and cultural; of universal and local. Through movie was a gem and interanatonally appreciate.
Shakespearen tragedy a combination of Greek as well as modern day Absurd Theater :-
Shakespearen tragedy is the designation given to most tragedies wriiten by playwright William Shakespeare. Many plays of his history plays share the qualifiers of a Shakespearen tragedy, but because they are based on real figures throughout the History of England, they were classified as " histories"in the first folio.
If we see that Greek tragedy was a popular and influential form of drama performed in theaters across ancient Greece.
The term ' Tragedy' derived from the 'tragos' meaning goat and 'oied' meaning song.
Look Greek tragedies never staged any scenes of violence. Such scences were described by the chorus. Shakespearen tragedies staged every scene that is there in the play. Both Greek and Shakespearen tragedy ends with a catastrophe, a disastrous conclusion that usually involves multiple deaths.
According to Macbeth as Shakespearen tragedy its very dramatic.its based on melodrama.Shakespearen tragedy was unique, born out of the pen of William shakespeare, who never followed the Aristotelian unities of time,place and action.
In macbeth we see the perfectly mentiain time,place and action.so its a that markble changes.
If we talk about the theatre of the absurd that though the term is applied to a wide range of plays, some characteristics council in many of the plays.broad comedy, vanuaile elements, absurd and tragic imagery mixed together, characters cuaght in hopeless situations forced to do repetivr or meaningless actions, dilogues full of cliches,wordplay, and nonsense.
According to Macbeth refrence its fantastic combination of Shakespearen and Greek tragedy. If we see that this play is abusard theme thare is not done. Beacuse in the play we see no meaningless actions.
Web series :-
If I make web series based on this play.I make following changes in it.
1) in play lady that after killing if Duncun macbeth felt sins of guilt but in my web series u change it and make Macbeth character very strong.
2) in play ambition is the main theme and in my addapting I take this but in this play only macbeth and lady Macbeth have this but in my series Banquo and macduf also have desire to become king. Because its reflect very clear part of this.
3) in it I gave important also other characters malcum and mecdof they are minor in play.
4) in my series I would like to gave a role of maqbool film's all characters. Because in Maqbool they play very significant and remarkable role.
Ambition in 21 century:-
Macbeth is probably the best play of Shakespeare. It's about greed for power and ambition. Ambition is main central theme in play. Macbeth encouraged by the witches, Macbeth's true downfall his ambition. Lady Macbeth is as ambitious as her husband. Macbeth's blind pursuit of power can be contrasted with other ambitious character in the play like Banquo. At the end of the play, macbeth has achieved all he wanted, but has nothing.
We know very well that without ambition thare is no best life you have. If you have no your own one dream what can you want in your life that its not done. Something that you very much want to have or do.
In this 21 century if compare with Shakespearen age that those days people desire to become king and this time people also have desires like these. And ambition did anything by people.
Everyone has a way to spend their life, some are happy with thier work and some are not,so they aspire for more and more and become ambitios which is good trait. Life is all about exploring, enjoyibg a better part of yourself . I believe not being ambious is very very very good sign.
In our time we see that they sets goal oriented and are always striving towards the next accomplishments,but healty ambitiobs involves keeping your goal private. So it we can say that ambition id needful things.
My learning lessons from 17th century Renaissance play :-
It was an incredibly time of beauty, blossmings with creativity and curiosity. Art is great form of self. Artist devloped by artists and many other thogh a form of visuals that allows.us to better intereptvand and devlop our oprions.
In that time plays are very significant. Its drop uppon that play reflect the socity. Macbeth desire to become king and ready to kill him.and that's time also we faced this situation. People enjoy the play but they also learnt into them.
Play relevant at that time? :-
Yes I find that this play is relevant this time because people are still motivated by greed, ambition and jealousy today just like in that times. Macbeth wanted to be king and some people today would do anything for money and power. Its continues to remain relevent contemporary socity through the exploration of ambition, a political and valie that is doubl. Just because of ambition is the everything . and with out ambition there is no better life. And that's most thing that betion is the best director.
We notice that macbeth is relevant today's time.
Conclusion :-
In nutshell I say that we find macbeth in different way here. Above we lots of things we discuss. And its very interesting subject. We find and write macbeth a strong character. The good things about tragedy is that there are no subplots and its just hits the right never instantly. In play we find one female character of lady Macbeth. Its all about ob ambition.there is a very strong family character. She couldn't be ibolised alright.
