Mrichchhakatika (The Little Clay Cart) is a ten-demonstration Sanskrit show credited to Śūdraka, an antiquated dramatist whose is perhaps from the fifth century AD, and who is recognized by the introduction as a Kshatriya lord just as a lover of Siva who lived for 100 years. The play is set in the old city of Ujjayini during the rule of the King Pālaka, close to the finish of the Pradyota tradition that made up the main quarter of the fifth century BC. The focal story is that of an honorable yet ruined youthful Brahmin, Sanskrit: Cārudatta, who becomes hopelessly enamored with an affluent concubine or nagarvadhu, Sanskrit: Vasantasenā. In spite of their common warmth, be that as it may, the couple's lives and love are undermined when a profane squire, Samsthānaka, otherwise called Shakara, starts to forcefully seek after Vasantasenā.

Overflowing with the sentiment, parody, interest and a political subplot itemizing the topple of the city's dictatorial ruler by a shepherd, the play is eminent among surviving Sanskrit show for its attention on an anecdotal situation as opposed to on an old style story or legend. Mṛcchakaṭika additionally leaves from customs counted in the Natya Shastra that indicate that shows should concentrate on the lives of the respectability and rather joins numerous worker characters who talk a wide scope of Prakrit vernaculars. The story is believed to be gotten from a prior work called Cārudatta in Poverty by the dramatist Bhāsa, however that work endures just in fragments.
