What to Focus On

  • Rabindranath Tagore wrote as a poet, novelist, short-story writer and dramatist.
  • He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913.
  • His drama grows from emotion, character, and spiritual change.

  • A simple request for water becomes a life-changing moment.
  • Prakriti experiences a new birth through recognition and respect.
  • Desire turns into pride and emotional disturbance.

  • Prakriti is the central female character and the emotional centre of the play.
  • The Mother performs the spells, not Prakriti herself.
  • Ananda is a disciple of the Buddha, not the Buddha.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Chandalika is only a simple love story about a girl attracted to a monk.

Prakriti herself knows and performs the magic spell on Ananda.

The Mother dies because she casts the spell on Ananda.
