Vidhushaka, a common character in Sanskrit drama, is invariably a

The vidūshaka is the comic jester or clown of classical Sanskrit drama and, while dramatic theory recognizes multiple types, extant plays most often depict him as a Brahmin. Bharata mentions several varieties, yet surviving texts commonly present the vidūshaka as a witty, sometimes ribald companion to the royal hero; G. K. Bhat observes that the most common type in extant Sanskrit drama is the Brahmin vidūshaka [1]. Secondary summaries of the role likewise describe the vidūshaka as the theatrical jester and attendant comic figure in classical plays, supporting the canonical identification of the vidūshaka with the Brahmana type in practice [2].
