Chitra A Play In One Act

Chitra: A Play in One Act is a one-act play written by Rabindranath Tagore, first published in 1913. The play is inspired by Hindu mythology, particularly the epic Mahabharata, and is one of Tagore's most celebrated works. The story explores themes of love, identity, self-sacrifice, and gender through the tragic story of the heroine, Chitra, who is a complex and multifaceted character. It is a story of transformation, self-discovery, and the painful yet liberating process of coming to terms with one's true self.
