Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

Chandalika

Solution :

The correct option is Chandalika.

Here is a step-by-step explanation of why this answer is correct:

1. Identify the work by Rabindranath Tagore: Rabindranath Tagore was a legendary Bengali polymath who reshaped Bengali literature and music in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Among his numerous plays, dance dramas, and stories, Chandalika (1938) is one of his most famous dance dramas (Nritya-Natya). It is based on an ancient Buddhist legend about an untouchable girl named Prakriti who falls in love with Ananda, a disciple of Gautama Buddha.

2. Analyze the other options to eliminate them:
- Tiger-Claw is not a work by Rabindranath Tagore.
- A Touch of Brightness is a well-known play written by the Indian playwright Partap Sharma (published in 1965).
- Image Breakers is not written by Tagore.

Therefore, Chandalika is the only text in the given options written by Rabindranath Tagore.
