Hi Janvi!

I am pleased to answer your question.

Indian classical drama has its history starting from 200BCE. Buddhist philosopher Aswaghosa was the first dramatist. Indian classical drama uses both sanskrit and prakrit language to give it a fine bilingual nature. The history resides more in the buddhist literature about Indian theatre. They say since the time of Alexander The Great India came into direct contact of Greek culture and it can be seen in ancient dramas.

I hope I have somewhat managed to answer your question.
