• Introduction:- 

                                          Girish Karnad born 19 May 1938 and death 10 June 2019 was an India actor, film director, Kannada writer, playwright and a rhodes scholar, who predominantly worked in south India cinema and Bollywood. his rise as a playwright in the 1960s marked the coming of age of modern India play writing i Kannada.

                     Girish Karnad is one of the influential playwrights in modern time. His drama has become employed imagination, innovation and craftsmanship. He received Jnanapith award, honored by Padma Bhushan. He also won the Sahitya Akademi award. Girish Karnad wants to be a modern poet, but he is destined to become a playwright. Many work has been done in the field of drama since the 1980 's. Especially, with the advent of playwrights such as Girish Karnad, Vijay Tendulkar, Mohan Rakesh, Badal Sarkar, dramas written in English in India are starting to attract people. 

                               Girish Karnad's Hayarkadana is based on Thomas Mann's "Transposed Heads" story. This is based on the version of the story of vate panchavimshati. (The play of Girish Karnad: the development of Girish Karnad as a playwright) But Karnad is heavily dependent on Thomas Mann 's story. In Hayavadana, Canard wants us to suggest to us that the solution of King Vikram does not solve the problem. In fact, it starts when it seems that the actual problem has been solved. This may be the reason he gave up the version of the veterinarian panchavimshati with the theme of "incest". At the same time, he is also very different from Thomas Man's story.
