                     Cross culture has benefits and negative effects too. When Garhwalis came in contact with other societies in plains they learn many positive aspects from other societies and adapted themselves for future benefits.  However, Garhwalis adapted a couple of negative custom from plains. One the dangerous custom is groom side taking dowry from bride side.  Garhwali Drama ‘Audal’ by Mohan Singh Bisht is about a couple of negative effects of cross culture specially Garhwalis adapting dowry custom. The drama is relevant till date. Mohan Sigh Bisht has been successful in dramatizing Garhwalis leaving their beneficial culture and adapting new unwanted culture in plains and in Garhwal as well. The characterization and dialogues suit the theme of bad effects of dowry.

 Geetanjali Kala Manch staged ‘Audal’ a Garhwali Drama Cautioning Bad Effects of Cross Culture Specially Dowry in 1982 in Delhi.
