The Grand Kalidasa Quiz

12 Questions 6 mins 1 Language
Valmiki, Vyasa, and Kalidasa represent the best of Sanskrit literature. Kalidasa was arguably the greater writer. Sri Aurobindo says, "He is the supreme poet of the senses, of aesthetic beauty, of sensuous emotion.” He wrote seven books – four poems and three dramas – though many other works are attributed to him. On Kalidasa's birth anniversary (Jayanti), let us examine his compositions and delve into stories about his life, in this short quiz. Please note, there is no single or definitive Kalidas Jayanti day. Five lucky participants, and three quiz participants each in Bengali, Odia and Sanskrit languages will win lovely books.
