Did you know that Mṛcchakaṭika, meaning “The Little Clay Cart,” is one of ancient India’s most famous Sanskrit plays?

Traditionally attributed to King Śūdraka, the play is set in the city of Ujjain and tells the story of Cārudatta, a kind but poor man, and Vasantasenā, a wealthy courtesan. Unlike many ancient plays that focus mainly on kings and gods, Mṛcchakaṭika shows everyday life, including merchants, servants, gamblers, artists and ordinary townspeople.

The play is also known for its humour, romance and political drama. It is divided into 10 acts and is an important example of India’s rich tradition of theatre and storytelling.

Did you know? Pen in Maharashtra is home to hundreds of karkhanas dedicated to making Ganapati idols. Generations of artisans have perfected this craft, producing lakhs of idols every year for celebrations across India and abroad.

The Pen Ganesh idol has a GI tag, recognising its distinctive traditional craftsmanship. One special stage is akhani, the intricate finishing of the idol’s eyes that brings its expression to life.
