Author(s) Debashis Deoghoria

Abstract Bhavabhūti is one of the greatest playwrights in the field of Sanskrit literature. His three plays are-
ⅰ) Uttararāmcaritam.
ⅱ) Mahābircaritam and
ⅲ) Mālatimādhavam.
His thought of love has been expressed in these plays and bears wide range of implication to affect modern society a lot. Love is not only a matter of joy but is full of pathos also. Love is a matter which is not limited within the love of two opposite sex or corporeal body. The very thought of love of Bhavabhūti’s Uttararāmacaritam crosses the narrow boundary of love and helps two develop social benevolent concept of love. In his concept or thought of love, there we see an affection of parent and children, brotherhood, respectful love for common people or subjects and towards the other elements of nature irrespective of flora and fauna. Nevertheless, full with heroic deeds the Mahāvīracaritam is stuffed with only love. But the love of Rāma and Sītā, Lakṣmaṇa and Urmilā has been described beautifully. In the Mālatimādhabam amorous love affair has been highlighted among young characters with full of passion, curiosity, desire, wanting etc. Corporeal, social, natural and universal love are being embedded in the writings of Bhavabhūti.
Keywords Bhavabhūti, Play, Love, Modern Society.
