This research article focuses on the aspect of transformation and its value in a capitalistic society. Human existence is recognized owing to its usefulness or else the existence either ignored or annihilated. Likewise, this paper probes into the existential transformation and its effect on the life of Gregor who resists, accepts, ignores, and succumbs to the weird transformation. This eventually questions the meaning of existence amidst absurd ideals of socio, economic conditions.
