Abstract
The beginning of Sanskrit literary theory can be traced back to Bharat muni and his rasa theory proposed in his work Natyashastra. That work can be considered to be the initiation of what followed as Sanskrit or Indian Poetics. There was a great lineage of intellectual masters who tried to propagate the importance of various elements as the backbone of the literature or literary sense. Auchitya theory by Kshemendra is one of such theory which tries to define ‘aptness’ as one of the most important factors in creation of aesthetic work. Present paper tries to illustrate its origin and development along with the arguments Kshemendra originally put forward as explanation.
