Kalidasa's play 'Malavikagnimitram' is set in the court of which dynasty?

The dynasty was founded by Sri Gupta around the early fourth century CE, but it gained real political strength under Chandragupta I, who laid the foundation for a powerful north Indian empire.

This era saw remarkable achievements in science, mathematics, literature, art, and architecture happening together under stable and prosperous rule, which is why historians label it a golden age.

Chandragupta II, also known as Vikramaditya, expanded the empire further and patronised scholars like Kalidasa, making his court a centre of literary and cultural brilliance.

Aryabhata's work on the concept of zero, place-value notation, and calculations related to pi and the earth's rotation are among the most significant contributions of this period.

Repeated Huna invasions combined with the administrative strain of governing a vast territory led to the empire's gradual fragmentation by the early sixth century.
