Bharat Muni’s Natyasastra is celebrated work on Indian dance & drama. It mainly deals with all the major aspects of drama namely stage setting, music, plot construction, characterization, dialogue and acting. In fact, Natyasastra is the first major treatise on the art of performance which depicts the entire framework of drama so minutely.
