Peace in patriarchy is war against women. The evil in the world has been adequately portrayed by Vijay Tendulkar in his dramas. All his plays deal with the oppression of the weak by the powerful. Vivacity of characters and explicitness in the portrayal of incidences are the chief features of the play Kanyadaan. Kanyadaan analyses minutely the conflicts troubling the inner core of heart and mind. We find poetic and emotional manifestations of women’s soul, adjustment with the situation, tenderness of her mind, agitations of love memories and her endurance are outstandingly presented in the most appealing way. In our society as well as in Vijay Tendulkar’s plays we can see the incidences of criminality, oppression and violence against fair sex. Our male dominant society has imposed restrictions on females in the name of ideology and culture. In this play a well educated woman becomes a victim of domestic brutality, mental aggravation, disloyalty of trust and marital dispute.
