Hi Aspirant,

Prakarana is an Indian Art and drama form.It is a drama of India involving fictional situations from ordinary life.It has many historical backgrouds and evolution part of this drama form is quite interesting. A classical Sanskrit play invariably opens with the so-called prastävanä, a scene in which the sûtradhâra, or the director of the troupe of actors, announces the play.

Hope it helps!!
