. He was inspired to write this play by Ashutosh Mukherji's Lord
Gouranga
. The play depicts the stages of development of Radha's simple bhakti growing into Mahabhava, its highest culmination usually associated with only

by vaishnava scholars. It is sought to elevate the image of Radha to Krishna's consort in Goloka, the heaven. The Sage Narada was used as an initiator and promoter of this dramatic action.
