High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ranchhodlal Udayaram Dave (1837-1923) is almost always respected as the groundbreaker and trailblazer in the art of play-writing in Gujarati with his Lalita Dukh Darsak Natak. He is considered as Grandfather of modern Gujarati play in Gujarati literature. He was the president of Gujarati Sahitya Parishad in the year 1921 in Vadodara. He was not happy with the adult-comedy being performed in traditional-folk Gujarati play form called Bhavai. So he decided to come up with pure and sober Gujarati Play. Ranchodbahi first published his play in Gujarati monthly Budhhi-Prakash in serialized manner. The name of this play was Jaykumari-Vijay, He borrowed from Sanskrit plays and also used mythological themes. He belong to Sudharak-Yug, so he also perched about social reforms in his plays. Lalita Dukh Darsak is a great example of his themes and his ability.
