Playing Gods and Kings.

Expression.
Drama.
Natyashastra - Bharata.
Greeks and we had a similarity.
Drama.
Both they and we used drama as a medium to express.
But Indian drama was different in one important way.The Greeks wrote many sad plays or tragedies,but the early Indians much preferred a happy ending! :)
P.S : 'Happy endings' date back to ancient Indians. (:
Dated : 1st-century BC to 3rd-century CE


P.S : Natya shastra reminds me of another classical form of expression.Dance.Nrithyam. :)
P.P.S : And dance reminds me of Swarnakamalam .
Oka adbhutham.(If you are a classical dance admirer and haven't watched Swarnakamalam.Do it now! And if you have a shortage of time,plug into this.)
