ABSTRACT
The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate how realistically Tendulkar in Ghashiram Kotwal has shown the whole process from the victim to the victimizer through the protagonist of the play, Ghashiram. He is first victimized and then he himself becomes a brutal victimizer. How oppressions done by a powerful on a powerless person leave such an intense impact on mind and soul of a person that there remains no option other than becoming an oppressor himself. The paper attempts to visit this process of victim to victimizer with Ghashiram in order to throw light on the lives of those abundant people in society who are serious criminals or victimizers and the reason behind it is nothing other than atrocities done by powerful people on innocent ones.
