Girish Karnad is a contemporary Indian playwright who composed plays for four decades and explored relevant issues by using history, myth and folklore. His second play Tughlaq is a masterpiece in Indian English Drama and it was originally written in Kannada in 1964. Karnad confesses" I was persuaded to translate it into English by Alyque Padamsee, who latter produced it for the Theatre Group, Bombay." (Murthu: 142) Karnad was deeply impressed by Tughlaq' character and his political reign and he dared to write a classical play on his life for which Karnad studied deeply and adroitly the fact related to him. Karnad himself explains," I started with Ishwari Prasad and then went on to all the contemporary material suddenly felt possessed. I felt the character was growing in front of me". Tughlaq is obviously a historical political allegory which exhibits contemporary political treachery, atrocity, corruption and bloodshed. So this paper will discuss the Tughlaq as a reflection of Political Intrigue, Betrayal and Violence in detail.
