This play changed it all. Mohan Rakesh went on to write two more plays and left one unfinished at the time of his death in 1972.

In fact it is well nigh impossible to do full justice to his poetry, particularly the ghazal in translation. The best that could be done was to translate the verses into independent rhymed couplets.
