摘　　要：Culture as a determiner of behavior,activities and sensibilities has produced innumerable landmark handiworks,most significant representative performances and profound artistic and sporting moments that signify our existence on the globe.The reflective moments of human civilization and culture are fixated in history and space time junctures.It must have been so enlightening and refreshing to every passing generation to see with wonderstruck eyes the evolution and the incredible journey of the human beings on earth.But at the same time it must have saddened so many hearts to see the incomprehensibility of the forces of destruction working implicitly in minds and activities and making the greater life tenuous and less sustainable.Especially now when Covid 19 pandemic has started frustrating life and beliefs of so many,a cultural crisis seems to have dawned and set the approaches of the community towards world view and perspectives of life.From the basic divisions of culture by Raymond Williams we have consciously traversed years of culture and living experiences,but the notion of culture as documentary and social has deflated to the extent of changing the essentials of behavior and feelings.Apart from diverse and innumerable responses towards this catastrophic topical situation of fear,anxiety and uncertainty;the social,cultural,economic and political scenes have depleted like never before.
