''Ashroonchi Zhali Phule'', also known as ''Ashrunchi Jhali Phule'' (English: Tears Turned Into Flowers) is an award-winning Marathi play by Vasant Shankar Kanetkar. In 1966, Kanetkar received a Filmfare Award for Best Story for the Hindi movie ''Aansoo Ban Gaye Phool'', which was an adaptation of ''Ashroonchi Zhali Phule''. == Plot == The play depicts the turns in fortunes in the lives of the two main protagonists, Vidyanand, a professor of mathematics, and his young protégé Lalya. Professor Vidyanand is a morally upright, brilliant professor of mathematics in a college in a town in Maharashtra. He comes across an intransigent student, Lalyaa, and succeeds in reforming him. Lalya graduates from college and enters the Indian Police Service as a cadet. Meanwhile, his college is taken over by a local politician who also has strong criminal links. The politician wants to exploit the college for commercial gain. When Vidyanand resists, the politician subverts Vidyanand's own colleagues to implicate him falsely under bribery charges. Vidyanand is removed from his position and is thrown in jail. In jail, he undergoes a transformation, and comes out as a hardened criminal, bent on enacting revenge against those who falsely implicated him. He teams up with his childhood friend turned con-man, Shambhu Mahadev, and puts in motion a plan to defraud the politician who has ruined his life. In the meantime, Lalya, who is now a senior police officer, is assigned to apprehend Vidyanand. Lalya, oblivious to Vidyanand's transformation, embarks on this mission. Eventually, Vidyanand achieves his revenge, but in the process finds he has lost his moral center and compromised the very values he has stood for. In the end, he is apprehended by protégé, but finds redemption in the fact that his life as a teacher caused his protégé Lalya to reform himself. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ashroonchi Zhali Phule」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
