I was first introduced to Karnad's play Tughlaq in my first year BA (English Literature) course. It was quite challenging and tough for 18-year-old students to decipher 'Tughlaq' as Karnad had portrayed the Delhi Sultan as a man of opposites whose political aspirations were far from reality.
My college professor unraveled the deft intrigue running throughout the play much to our excitement. Karnad's 'Tughlaq' wanted progress, equality and peace but his idealism became a farce as both Muslims and Hindus did not trust his intentions.
Far from being an introvert, as most writers are, Girish Karnad enjoys the reputation of being an articulate thinker. In fact, he has been a man of many parts and a man of all seasons — a mathematician, a Rhodes Scholar, a great performer on stage and screen, a TV compeer, a filmmaker, and a cultural administrator.
The gripping main plot, efficacious sub-plots and skillful characterization in the action- packed play were fascinating.

Characters like Aziz, Aazam, Tughlaq's stepmother, Najib and Barani lay etched in our minds.
The play influenced us so much that we students staged a few important scenes from 'Tughlaq' after a month-long rehearsal. The standing ovation we won at the end of the play remains unforgettable to this day.
We also had R. K. Narayan's 'Swami and Friends' prescribed for our degree course and when it was televised as a weekly serial on DD National our joy knew no bounds. Girish Karnad played the role of Swami's father to perfection.
Shankar Nag's directorial finesse and the lilting title track left TV audience awestruck.
