Abinayaa Babu
Abstract:
India has the largest and the richest tradition in drama. The earliest form was in Sanskrit. Drama was first written between first century AD till tenth century AD. During Mughal rule theatres and dramas were completely forbidden in India. But during 15th to 19th century many dramas were written in regional languages to preach moral values to people. Later English dramas came into existence during British Empire in India in mid-19th to mid-20th century.
