Abstract: As a playwright, actor, director, and social thinker, Mahesh Dattani is well-known in the world of Indian English drama. His plays address societal concerns like as gender inequality, patriarchy, communalism, etc. in an accurate and sympathetic manner. He is recognized as the dramatist of the masses, including the wealthy, the oppressed, the underdogs, the disregarded, the urban elite, and the underprivileged. This inferior status of women in Indian society has been conveyed by him in an ideal way. In Tara and Final Solutions, Dattani depicts a patriarchal society in which the male members act as "autocratic" rulers and make all the crucial decisions for the family. He has depicted Tara in Tara as the victim of gender discrimination, which is a major and prevalent problem in India. In Indian society, the desire for males and disdain for daughters still exist
