Which two of the following dramatists have won the Sultan Padamsee Award?
A) Mahesh Dattani
B) Gurcharan Das
C) Girish Karnad
D) Cyrus Mistry
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct option is A & D (which corresponds to Mahesh Dattani and Cyrus Mistry).

To understand why this is the correct answer, we can look at the history of the Sultan Padamsee Award for Playwriting, which is a prestigious award in India given to English-language playwrights:

1. Mahesh Dattani (A): He won the Sultan Padamsee Award for his play Final Solutions in 1988. Dattani is one of India's most celebrated playwrights writing in English, known for addressing social issues such as gender, sexuality, and communal conflict.

2. Cyrus Mistry (D): He won the Sultan Padamsee Award for his play Doongaji House in 1978. Mistry's work often highlights Parsi life and culture, and this award-winning play is considered a landmark in Indian English theatre.

While Gurcharan Das (B) and Girish Karnad (C) are highly renowned writers, they are not the two dramatists specified in this pair who won the Sultan Padamsee Award. Girish Karnad, for example, primarily wrote in Kannada and translated his plays into English, and is famous for winning other accolades such as the Jnanpith Award and Sahitya Akademi Award. Therefore, the correct pair of dramatists is Mahesh Dattani and Cyrus Mistry, making the option A & D the correct choice.
