The depiction of real life situations of Indian society in the plays of Mahesh Dattani is a crucial contribution to society and literature as well. His audience and readers become intensely sensitized towards the pain, sufferings and also the happiness of his characters. This is aptly reflected in the portrayal of his characters named Alpesh and Lata in Do the needful. Dattani holds up a mirror to society about their conduct towards the minority group and the marginalized sects. Mahesh Dattani is a powerful artist who brings out explicitly some as yet untouched upon, but prevailing social issues of Indian society in order to generate sympathy and empathy for them. The real color of Indian society which pretends to be culturally bound, in reality doesn’t leave any opportunity to let down its own culture. Dattani skillfully uses internal monologues to bring out the turmoil faced by the principal characters and he successfully brings out the real feelings of the characters in their cultural context by introducing the particular words in various languages other than English language to highlight the real emotions of the characters.
