Gender concerns in Mahesh Dattani's Tara

<p>Mahesh Dattani’s Tara explores a<br>surprising account of gender issues<br>informed by preconception and inequality<br>that occurs in Indian society against the girl<br>child. This research paper makes use of<br>Mahesh Dattani’s play Tara, which<br>elaborates on the concept of social<br>problems such as gender discrimination,<br>sorrow, and melancholy, which are<br>experienced by both men and women in<br>equal estimate. Gender bias, injustice done<br>on the basis of gender, and priority for male<br>children in Indian society are matters that<br>are the focus of this research paper. The<br>play Tara dictates the emotional and<br>physical separation of conjoined twins. It<br>represents the society's deep-rooted<br>patriarchal system. The aim of this article is<br>to review and study the play's issue of the<br>female condition in society. Chandan is a<br>boy, which is why he is preferred to Tara,<br>instead of the truth that Bharati is Tara's<br>mother. She ruins her daughter’s life and, in<br>the end, suffers as a result of her cruel<br>manners. Thakkar is a doctor who makes a<br>mistake in his ability as a doctor and a<br>technophile. Tara’s father and Bharati<br>corrupted him with a piece of land in<br>exchange for Tara’s death.</p>
