Description
Vijay Tendulkar, best known for his emotionally charged protest plays and filmscripts, chooses a different genre for Ghashiram Kotwal—that of the musical historical. Set in Maharashtra in the late eighteenth century, it recounts a power game played out in terms of caste ascendancy in politics. The work draws on several Maharashtra folk styles, and has an obvious relevance in the context of individuals playing the game of politics, taking advantage of situations, rising to power, and crashing to impotence at the whims of more powerful players in the same game—a typical phenomenon in almost any political complex. The play is widely known in its Theatre Academy production directed by Jabbar Patel, with more than 300 performances to its credit, in India and abroad. In the translation by Eleanor Zelliot and Jayant Karve it retains its racy vigour and musical charm—all that went to make the production a hit.

Rooted in history, and following myth as well as contemporary reality, with socio-economic milieus ranging from the urban bourgeoisie to the urban underworld, rural untouchable settlements to rural tribal communities, this play offers a view of India rarely seen in literature

This edition also contains a production casebook, a biographical note on the playwright and critical studies of the play.

He is best known for his plays, Shantata! Court Chalu Aahe (1967), Ghāshirām Kotwāl (1972), and Sakhārām Binder (1972).Many of Tendulkar’s plays derived inspiration from real-life incidents or social upheavals, which provides clear light on harsh realities.
