Remarks:-'The Ms, is in a fairly good condition.
This drama of Bhavabhūti is preserved in an incomplete form only. It is now regarded by almost all that Bhavabhūti did not finish the work. Several writers have composed the last portions comprising Acts VI & VII and completed the work.
The drama deals with the story of the Rimiyapa. The latest edition of the drama in the Punjab University Series by Toder Mall and Prof. Macdonell is noteworthy. For remarko on Bbavabhūti, see No. 4314.
