I am privileged to pen this master piece. I took the main plot of the story and did some of the modifications to the acts of the play form the history which covered the reign of Shajahan from AD 1630 to the death of Amar Singh Rathor in 1644. It is not an imitation of any anybody, it is partially Indian history and the remaining act is fictitious act. It is not intended to anybody.
The mighty Amar Singh Rathor is a romantic and patriotic play. Due to cinema and TV the dramatic art slowly defamed. It is not an exaggeration to say, the present generation of the rural folk once who entertained the dramatic art never had a glance at it, it is losing it fame and diminishing. If it has gone few more years the drama may extinct from the rural scene. Once it is glorified with its name and fame. The present generation came to know about it in the text books only. The dramatic art is the living fossil to exhibit the ancient culture.
When I was a child the play was staged by “Sindu Bhagavatulu” the group of people, whose living habit is only the play, wondering from village to village and exhibit their dramatic art. Where ever they go they are treated as the guests of the village. They had the good fame with the characters and the dialogue delivery in the play, as present actors. Even the female characters are also staged by the male only. Today they loosed their lively hood due to the diminishing dramatic art and increasing TV, Movies, and nucleolus families.
