सार

This research paper explores the themes of love for nature and environmental awareness in post
independence Hindi dramas, investigating how playwrights from this era engaged with ecological 
concerns and human relationships with the natural world. By analyzing key works from prominent 
Hindi dramatists, the study examines how environmental themes are interwoven into narratives, 
characters, and symbols, reflecting broader socio-political changes and evolving environmental 
consciousness in post-independence India. The paper highlights the role of traditional Indian values 
in shaping attitudes toward nature, demonstrating how dramatists use cultural motifs to underscore 
the interconnectedness of humanity and the environment. Through an exploration of thematic 
elements, character dynamics, and symbolic language, this paper illustrates how Hindi dramas not 
only serve as literary reflections of the environmental issues of their time but also act as powerful 
vehicles for fostering ecological awareness and inspiring a love for nature. The study concludes by 
discussing the impact of these dramatic works on the social consciousness of their audiences, 
reinforcing the idea that literature has the potential to cultivate an environmentally sensitive society 
in India.
