Vijay Tendulkar is among the few modern Indian dramatists who wrote successful plays on major social problems in India. The main theme which recurs time and again in his plays is the theme of gender discrimination. This is to reflect on Tendulkar’s way of demonstrating how Society adds to the depreciation of women as human being and deprives them of most of human rights, relative to life, liberty, equality and dignity of the Individual. He shows how women are exploited, tortured and victimised. Women are made to suffer throughout their life, is also one of the central concerns of the paper. An attempt has also been made to display the unfair treatment of women that compel them to tolerate all types of violence: Physical, mental and emotional.
