This essay analyses the experiments Mulk Raj Anand conducted in the genre of Indian English literature. Even though he wrote in a foreign tongue, Indian themes and concerns predominate. Anand experimented with language, stylistic devices, and subjects, among other things. The idea of art for the sake of art is rejected by Anand. He says truthful portrayals of situations should be the goal of art. It should not deal with delight or pleasure, but with man and his circumstances and associated issues. It is said that Anand was an Indo-Anglian writer who experimented a lot to make his writings wholly Indian. Language experimentation is a difficult endeavour, but Anand accepted the challenge with a bracing candour. He skillfully incorporates Punjabi and Hindustani idioms and phrases into his writings by blending them together. He uses analogies, ideas, and symbols that have a strong cultural foundation in Indian culture. Anand only uses vocabulary from traditional Indian society, which was formerly colonised by the British, in his writings. All of these artistic approaches produce a genuine scene, portray societal problems in one light, and highlight Anand's Indianness in another. A crucial component of every literary work is character development. Anand selects folks who were disadvantaged and disenfranchised to be his protagonists. Anand's attempt of portraying a youngster as a hero in literary works is admirable. He utilised Indian English to his benefit, utilising it without sacrificing the integrity of the native tongue of Indian culture. He may be the first Indian writer in history to portray subjects that other Indian English authors have barely ever addressed.

Realism, Indo-Anglian, Stylistic devices, Characterization.
