Talk:Mṛcchakatika

Removed False Sentence
"It revolves around a King's courtesan, who falls in love with a poor boy, who drives a cart and pitying him leaves behind her precious jewels given by the king, but lands into trouble."

I removed this sentence because:
 * Vasantasena is not the King's courtesan.
 * Charudatta is not a poor boy, but a Brahmin who has lost his wealth.
 * Charudatta does not drive the cart, his son owns a clay cart, but wants a gold one.
 * Vasantasena does not leave her precious jewels, she leaves her noisy, gold jewelry with him while trying to escape from the King's brother-in-law.

I don't have sources, but I saw this play yesterday, and the sentence wasn't cited. The cited translation probably also makes this clear.

Wrong name
Here, the name is mentioned as Mṛcchakatika, which is not the original sanskrit name of the play, but hindi(and english) name. The original name of the play is मृच्छकटिकम् / Mṛcchakaṭikam (And NOT mr̥cchakaṭikā / मृच्छकटिका as mentioned here) So, someone please correct the very first sentence. Also, the different spellings as mentioned in the article is irrelevant and must be changed to: Mṛcchakaṭikam, Mrchchhakatikam, Mricchakatikam, Mrichchhakatikam etc.
