- First published: Date unknown

"Chitra: Ein Spiel in einem Aufzug" by Rabindranath Tagore is a one-act play first published in English in 1913. Drawing from the Mahabharata, it tells the story of Chitrangada, a warrior princess raised as a boy, who falls desperately in love with the hero Arjuna. When he rejects her, she begs the gods for perfect beauty to win him over. But as their year together unfolds, Chitra must confront a painful question: can love built on illusion ever become real?
