Three outstanding Sanskrit dramas were adapted into Amar Chitra Katha tales for this bumper issue:
1. Bhasa's Swapna-Vasavadatta.
2. Shudraka's Mrichchakatikam (The Clay Cart).
3. Emperor Harsha's Ratnavali.
Kalidasa speaks reverently about Bhasa. Therefore, it can be assumed that Bhasa lived in a time period that was either 100 or 200 years before to Kalidasa (who lived in the fourth century A.D.). Vasantasena and Charudatta, the poor merchant, are the subject of Shudraka's Mrichchakatikam, which centres on their love. Emperor Harsha, who reigned from Kanauj in the seventh century A.D., is attributed to Ratnavali.
