Abstract : A metrical common fixed point theorem proved for a pair of self mappings due to Sastry and Murthy (\cite{Sastry}) is extended to symmetric spaces which in turn unifies certain fixed point theorems due to Pant (\cite{Pant99}) and Cho et al. (\cite{Cho}) besides deriving some related results. Some illustrative examples to highlight the realized improvements are also furnished.
Keywords : compatible mappings, non-compatible mappings, partially commuting mappings, $R$-weakly commuting mappings, tangential mappings, Lipschitz mapping, coincidence point and fixed point
