This historical play on Chandragupta, who ushered a new Golden Period in the history of India in the modern era (after a sequence of glorious eras including those of Rama in the Treta-Yuga (cosmic era) and Krishna (Dwapar-Yuga), millennia ago, who are now venerated as Avatars (Incarnations of God) by virtue of their exemplary characters and deeds.) It draws from information contained in history books, a play in Hindi by the famed poet and playwright, Jaya Shankar Prasad, the recent television series called Chanakya, and other available sources; and is written in a fashion to facilitate stage-production by youngsters and adults, particularly those of Indian descent in the USA, Europe, and other parts of the world.
