Kalidasa is called as India's Shakespeare. We hear this statement whenever people speak about Kalidasa. But logically speaking Kalidasa's period is 4-5th Century AD and Shakespeare's period is 1564 - 1616. Though Shakespeare is a great poet, many centuries before Kalidasa has written great plays, poems. If required let Britishers call Shakespeare as "British Kalidasa/England's Kalidasa". But Indian's will not accept this statement as it is wrong. Note: If father and son has resemblence we say "You look like your father", we don't say his father that "you look like your son". Hope this is the proper statement which clears above statements.

There is no conclusive evidence about the identity of Kalidasa's parents. Kalidasa was a revered classical Sanskrit poet and playwright, and many legends exist about his origins, including stories that he was a simple shepherd who was blessed with divine knowledge.
