In India, modernity has changed the concept of existence and it has driven Indians to the life of glamour and glitz of technology, gadgets, metropolis and enslavement to mechanics of machinery. Their day to day life is beset with a paradigm shift in their notions of being equipped at the best with techno-world. The playwrights' concern is not just to expose the reality of developing people, but they are also a part of that same change. The plays sensitize the readers and spectators with the individual unhappiness, despite the breaking of their weak boundaries and the building of their self-capacity. On one hand there is self-reliance, while at the same time there is heart of ruin. The authors question the value-added Indian legacy of humanity, which is fallen to hypocrisy and usury. These authors poignantly examine human life within the man-made dimensional laws that has wrought human sense eco-critically to understand nature's laws and human rights. Therefore these playwrights suggestively are self-critical to raise human intellect in order to do away with their cynical and skeptical concepts for the advancement of their lifestyle and life patterns. Metaphysically, they make aware Indians-how does their inner thought process relate their primary needs with the social milieu, external impressions, environmental issues and existential choices? How do Indians in contemporary reality of human existence correspond with free-will that is mostly in contradictory conflict due to greed, selfishness, and human need?
