Sometimes, layman is in such a confusion that why does he live or die in uncertainty. For instance, the whole humanity experienced uncertainty of loneliness and meaningless during the period of Covid-19. Many scholastic writers opined on human existence and absurdity in their own style and philosophy. In 1961, Martin Esslin states in his work Theatre of Absurd that modern existence is absurd, uncertain and meaningless. Absurd playwrights like Samuel Beckett, Harold Pinter, Girish Karnad and Badal Sircar enlighten the humanity with their dramatic plays in real time absurd concepts.
