Muhammad Bin Tughlaq, who ruled from Delhi in the fourteenth century, was a well-read scholar of the arts, theology, and philosophy. He was a mystic, as well as a poet - but also impatient, cruel and dogmatic. One of Delhi's most intelligent rulers ever, within twenty years he became one of its greatest failures. Karnad explores the "madness" that earned him the epithet "Mad Muhammad". Commentators (and Karnad himself) draw parallels with the mood of India in the 1960s, moving from the idealism of the early Nehru era to political disillusionment.
