Abstract


This paper explores the metatheatrical elements in Kalidasa's Abhijñānaśākuntalam and Karnad’s Nagamandala through the lens of spectator and spectacle. Metatheatre refers to moments in a play that draw attention to the theatrical nature of the performance itself. The paper aims to uncover the relationship between actors, characters, and audiences by examining how they comment on the act of watching and being watched.
