Mahaviracharita
:''Not to be confused with Hemachandra's Jain work about Mahavira''
''Mahaviracharita'' ("Exploits of a Great Hero") is a play by the 8th-century Sanskrit playwright Bhavabhuti based on the early life of Rama, the hero of the ''Ramayana'' and venerated as a Hindu deity. It is the first play of Bhavabhuti,〔Mirashi p.111〕 thus lacking in character and style compared to his two known later works: ''Malatimadhava'' and ''Uttararamacharita''.〔 Though currently composed of seven acts, the whole present text may not have been composed by Bhavabhuti.
==Structure and plot==
The play is composed of seven acts. Most modern scholars agree that Bhavabhuti has written the play from the beginning only to the 46th verse of Act V.〔 According to one theory, the rest of the play is lost to time. Another theory suggests that Bhavabuti left the play incomplete after the 46th verse of Act V. However, two different extensions replace the lost material to make up seven acts. The North Indian version is composed by a poet Vinayaka and the South Indian version is attributed to Subrahmanya, but this is disputed.〔 Both versions do not resemble Bhavabuti's style. However, the North Indian version is considered better in quality than the South Indian version.〔Mirashi p.146〕
