                According to Bharat’s Natyashastra (7/79); dissimulation sentiment is demonstrated in drama by irrelevant talk, looking down, broken speech and pretended patience

        Dissimulation sentiment in drama is to show the deceptive quality of a character. To show dissimulation characters the performer changes the subject of talk immediately, speaks differently or irrelevant talks.

          I remember a mini Garhwali folk drama played by Badi-Badan in Jaspur, Malla Dhangu, Pauri Garhwal, North India in the month of Chait (15th March-14^th April) in 1964-65.  

                     एक गढवाली लोक नाटक में अवहित्थ     भाव

 पंडी जी (व्यासपीठ से ) - सुणो ! चोरी करण माहापाप च। चोरी करण से नरक मिल्द ।

एक शिल्पकार (दर्शक दीर्घा से भैर  )- पण पंडी जी परसि त तुम गलादार जीक मूळा चुराणा छया। 

पंडी जी ( इना उना दिखद )- ऊँ ऊँ  …मूळा … की चोरी चोरी नि बुले जांद। चलो अब कृष्ण सद्भामा विवाह की कथा सुणो

   In this mini drama a Pundit is preaching about the sins of theft. Suddenly a Shilpkar reminds the Pundit that day before Pundit Ji was stealing radish from village council chief.

Pundit replies that stealing radish is not theft. The role of Pundit was played by a Badi was marvelous in showing the sentiment of dissimulation. Performer (Badi) was able to show concealing the intensions.  

  Badis (a professional class –caste) were great dramatists to show the negativity in the society.
