This research paper presents a pioneering psychological analysis of the character Padmāvati from Bhāsa's Sanskrit play "Svapnavāsavadattam," utilizing the Big Five Theory of Personality as the analytical framework. The Big Five Theory, which categorizes personality traits into five broad dimensions: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism, serves as a lens through which Padmāvati's character is examined in depth. Through meticulous analysis of her actions, dialogues, and interactions within the narrative, this study aims to map Padmāvati's personality traits onto the Big Five dimensions, offering insights into her psychological makeup and its influence on the plot and other characters. The paper explores how these traits manifest in Padmāvati's behavior and decisions, and how they contribute to the thematic richness of the play. Additionally, the study delves into the implications of Padmāvati's personality for understanding gender roles and character agency in ancient Indian literature. By integrating classical literary analysis with contemporary psychological theory, this research illuminates the timeless complexity of Bhāsa's characters and provides a novel perspective on "Svapnavāsavadattam," enriching both literary scholarship and psychological study of ancient texts.
