Qurratulain Hyder could weave a story in a manner that was quick in its pace and yet lingering in its mood. Her characters, often from urban backgrounds, live lives riddled with irony, while Qurratulain Hyder narrates their story with sardonic humour.One of the sharpest minds of her times, she spread her wings wide in the literary skies- she wrote for newspapers, short stories, memoirs and that magnificent historical novel, Aag Ka Dariya ( that she later translated into English herself as River of Fire)- a novel that encompasses the fates of four recurring characters over two and a half millennia. Let's listen today to a story that well illustrates her sparkling skills as a storyteller par excellence!कुर्रतुलैन हैदर एक ऐसी कहानीकार थीं जिनके कथानक  गति में तेज़ और फिर भी अपने मूड में स्थिर होते हैं। उनके पात्र, जो अक्सर शहरी पृष्ठभूमि से होते हैं, विडंबनाओं से भरे जीवन जीते हैं, कुर्रतुलैन हैदर उन पात्रों की कहानी अपनी अनूठी व्यंग्यात्मक शैली के साथ बयान करती हैं। अपने समय की सबसे प्रखर लेखकों में से एक, उन्होंने साहित्य के आसमान में अपने पंख फैलाए- उन्होंने अखबारों, लघु कथाओं, संस्मरणों के साथ-साथ उन्होंने वह  शानदार ऐतिहासिक उपन्यास, आग का दरिया लिखा, जिसका बाद में उन्होंने खुद अंग्रेजी में ‘रिवर ऑफ फायर' के रूप में अनुवाद किया। ये एक ऐसा उपन्यास है जो ढाई सहस्राब्दियों में चार आवर्ती पात्रों के भाग्य को समेटे हुए है। आइए आज एक ऐसी कहानी सुनें जो एक कहानीकार के रूप में उनके शानदार कौशल को बखूबी दर्शाती है!ऐनी आपा के नाम से जानी जानी वाली क़ुर्रतुल ऐन हैदर  प्रसिद्ध उपन्यासकार और लेखिका थीं। उनका जन्म उत्तर प्रदेश के शहर अलीगढ़ में हुआ था। उनके पिता थे 'सज्जाद हैदर यलदरम' जो उर्दू के जाने-माने लेखक तो थे ही, साथ ही ब्रिटिश शासन के राजदूत की हैसियत से अफगानिस्तान, तुर्की इत्यादि देशों में भी रहे  और उनकी मां 'नजर' बिन्ते-बाकिर भी उर्दू की लेखिका थीं। कुर्रतुलऐन बचपन से ही पाश्चात्य संस्कृति में पली-बढ़ीं। उन्होंने प्रारंभिक शिक्षा लालबाग, लखनऊ, उत्तर प्रदेश स्थित गाँधी स्कूल में प्राप्त की व तत्पश्चात अलीगढ़ से हाईस्कूल पास किया।उन्होंने लखनऊ विश्वविद्यालय से एम.ए. किया। फिर लन्दन के हीदरलेस आर्ट्स स्कूल में शिक्षा ग्रहण की। भारत और पाकिस्तान के विभाजन के समय  में उनके भाई-बहन व रिश्तेदार पाकिस्तान पलायन कर गए। लखनऊ में अपने पिता की मौत के बाद कुर्रतुल ऐन हैदर भी अपने बड़े भाई मुस्तफा हैदर के साथ पाकिस्तान पलायन कर गयीं। लेकिन वहां से वे लन्दन चली गयीं। वहाँ स्वतंत्र लेखक व पत्रकार के रूप में वह बीबीसी लन्दन से जुड़ीं तथा दि टेलीग्राफ की रिपोर्टर व इम्प्रिंट पत्रिका की प्रबन्ध सम्पादक भी रहीं। कुर्रतुल ऐन हैदर इलेस्ट्रेड वीकली के संपादन से भी जुडी रही । १९५६ में जब वे भारत भ्रमण पर आईं तो उनके पिताजी के अभिन्न मित्र मौलाना अबुल कलाम आज़ाद ने उनसे पूछा कि क्या वे भारत आना चाहतीं हैं? कुर्रतुल ऐन हैदर के हामी भरने पर उन्होंने इस दिशा में कोशिश करने की बात कही और अन्ततः वे वह लन्दन से आकर मुम्बई में रहने लगीं और तब से भारत में हीं रहीं। उन्होंने विवाह नहीं किया। उन्होंने अपना कैरियर एक पत्रकार की हैसियत से शुरू किया लेकिन इसी दौरान वे लिखती भी रहीं और उनकी कहानियां, उपन्यास, अनुवाद, रिपोर्ताज़ वग़ैरह सामने आते रहे। वो उर्दू में लिखती और अँग्रेजी में पत्रकारिता करती थीं। उनके बहुत से उपन्यासों का अनुवाद अंग्रेज़ी और हिंदी भाषा में हो चुका है। साहित्य अकादमी में उर्दू सलाहकार बोर्ड की वे दो बार सदस्य भी रहीं। विजिटिंग प्रोफेसर के रूप में वे जामिया इस्लामिया विश्वविद्यालय व अलीगढ मुस्लिम विश्वविद्यालय और अतिथि प्रोफेसर के रूप में कैलिफोर्निया विश्वविद्यालय से भी जुड़ी रहीं।१९५९ में उनका सबसे प्रसिद्ध उपन्यास आग का दरिया प्रकाशित हुआ जिसे आज़ादी के बाद लिखा जाने वाला सबसे बड़ा उपन्यास माना गया। -----About this channel: On this Youtube channel, you can listen to Hindi and Urdu Stories by famous writers of Hindi sahitya/ literature.

Send us a textApni Apni Bimari by Harishankar Parsai masterfully explores the nuanced landscape of human suffering through the lens of satire. This story unveils the peculiar and often ironic hierarchies of problems people face in life—from those who lament their financial hardships over taxes while living comfortably, to those who struggle for basic needs, and the inescapable burden of small-scale troubles that seem monumental to those bearing them. Parsai's storytelling highlights the relativity of pain and how one's perspective shapes their sense of struggle. Join us as we delve into this comedic yet poignant narrative that examines how people cling to their unique "illnesses" while yearning for greater struggles that symbolize status and privilege. The result is an insightful, relatable portrayal that sparks both laughter and reflection on the human condition.Performed by Vikas DhurkaSupport the showSubscribe to Naatak Radio on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Jio Saavn or wherever you get your podcasts.

We carry with us stories of people with whom we crossed paths years, sometimes decades ago. Some are inspiring stories and others, a cautionary tale. Hariram is the kind of unforgettable character we all have known or heard about. He lived a life of greed and misfortune and died an unremarkable death- only to be remembered by a young boy who saw Hariram as the beneficiary of his mother's simple act of kindness. नमस्कार, मेरा नाम आरती है और मैं Storyjam में हर हफ्ते आपको सुनाती हूँ हिंदी में एक कहानी। अगर आप को कहानियां सुनना अच्छा लगता हैं , तो इस चैनल को सब्सक्राइब ज़रूर करें धन्यवाद! ------- Contact me: Instagram: @arti_storyjam Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/StoryjamArti Club House : @artijain ------- Meet me at these Social Media links: Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/StoryjamArti My podcast on other platforms: Spotify open.spotify.com/show/0rG7ez0Pku1MuWhfvo6Dtz Apple Podcasts podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/storyjam-hindi-urdu-audio-stories/id1513845846 Gaana.com gaana.com/podcast/storyjam-hindi-urdu-audio-stories-season-1 RadioPublic radiopublic.com/storyjam-GmywpN Pocket Casts pca.st/rwdymlsd Overcast overcast.fm/itu #Hindi #StoryJam #hindikavita #hindipoetry #poetry #Urdupoetry ---------- About this channel: On this podcast channel, you can listen to Hindi and Urdu Stories by famous writers of Hindi sahitya/ literature.

विशेषज्ञों ने कहा, "हुज़ूर वह हाथ की पकड़ में नहीं आता। वह स्थूल नहीं, सूक्ष्म है, अगोचर है। पर वह सर्वत्र व्याप्त है। उसे देखा नहीं जा सकता, अनुभव किया जा सकता है।" राजा सोच में पड़ गए। बोले, "विशेषज्ञो, तुम कहते हो वह सूक्ष्म है, अगोचर है और सर्वव्यापी है। ये गुण तो ईश्वर के हैं। तो क्या भ्रष्टाचार ईश्वर है?" विशेषज्ञों ने कहा, "हाँ, महाराज, भ्रष्टाचार अब ईश्वर हो गया है।" -सदाचार का तावीज़, हरिशंकर परसाई

What would two great writers from history talk about if they were to meet? We may not find that out, but when one translates the works of the other, what is evident is a sense of common concern, a shared worldview and a hat tip to the greatness of the other. When Premchand translated works of Leo Tolstoy, he didn't just use his vast and rich vocabulary to retell the great Russian's work in Hindustani, he took the story and drew its essence in a way that the story became Indian. Incidentally, if you listen carefully you'll recognize another work or two that may have been inspired by the original. Do let me know if you do! -------- मुंशी प्रेमचंद का जीवन परिचय : धनपत राय श्रीवास्तव जिन्हे साहित्य प्रेमी प्रेमचंद के नाम से जाने जाते हैं, हिन्दी और उर्दू के शायद सबसे अधिक लोकप्रिय रचनाकार हैं । उन्होंने सेवासदन, प्रेमाश्रम, रंगभूमि, निर्मला, गबन, कर्मभूमि, गोदान आदि लगभग डेढ़ दर्जन उपन्यास तथा कफन, पूस की रात, पंच परमेश्वर, बड़े घर की बेटी, बूढ़ी काकी, दो बैलों की कथा आदि तीन सौ से अधिक कहानियाँ लिखीं। उनके उपन्यास सुर कथाएं हिन्दी तथा उर्दू दोनों भाषाओं में प्रकाशित हुईं। अपने दौर की सभी प्रमुख उर्दू और हिन्दी पत्रिकाओं जमाना, सरस्वती, माधुरी, मर्यादा, चाँद, सुधा आदि में भी उन्होंने लिखा।वे हिन्दी समाचार पत्र जागरण तथा साहित्यिक पत्रिका हंस के संपादक और प्रकाशक भी रहे। इसके लिए उन्होंने सरस्वती प्रेस खरीदा जो बाद में घाटे में रहा और बन्द करना पड़ा। प्रेमचंद फिल्मों की पटकथा लिखने मुंबई भी गए और लगभग तीन वर्ष तक रहे। वे जीवन के अंतिम दिनों तक वे साहित्य सृजन में लगे रहे। ----- About this channel: On this Youtube channel, you can listen to Hindi and Urdu Stories by famous writers of Hindi sahitya/ literature.

भारत में ९० के दशक में चाचा चौधरी से लेकर नागराज और सुपर कमांडो ध्रुव जैसे कई स्वदेशी कॉमिक पात्र घरेलु नाम रह चुके है। पर क्या कॉमिक्स और एनिमेशन सिर्फ बच्चों के पढ़ने या देखने की चीज़ है या बड़े भी इसका लुत्फ़ उठा सकते है? इस मज़ेदार इंडस्ट्री में नया क्या हो रहा है ये समझने के लिए हमने बात की कार्टूनिस्ट सुमित कुमार से, जो बकरमैक्स नामक एक कॉमिक्स और एनिमेशन स्टूडियो के संस्थापक है। The Indian comics industry saw its golden age in the 90s with homegrown characters like Chacha Chaudhary, Nagraj and super commando Dhruva becoming popular.

Love, by any other name would be just as controversial…at least in India. Here's Parsai ji's take on “love marriage”- that much desired “happy ending” on the big screen and that much hush-hushed occurrence in real world of the GIS (Great Indian Samaaj) You may think it, but Parsai ji will say it out loud…and put it on paper! He never shirked from calling a spade a spade. It is however the misfortune of us as a society that his commentary remains as relevant today as it was when he was writing it. #Hindi #HindiWriter #HindiSahitya #Vyang #Satire #StoryJam #audiostory #HindiPodcast #Podcast --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/storyjam/message

 Kitaban Ne Patteya Tenu (Satire)  II Writer - Harishankar Parsai II Voice - Aman

We all like to root for the underdog- in movies! In real life it gets a little complicated and awkward, like it does for the narrator in Agyeya's story. Will all that pent up justified anger lead to a free-for-all, or will it go flat after a while, like soapsuds? --------------------------------- Sachchidananda Hirananda Vatsyayan, better known by his nom de plume Agyeya, held a prominent presence in the world of Hindi literature. It is widely believed that he brought experimentalism to Hindi poetry. Though long before he was known for his poetry, he had started writing short stories and novels. As a young man he contributed to a magazine edited by Munshi Premchand. In fact there is an interesting anecdote about his pen name, Agyeya. As a freedom fighter young Sachchidanand was imprisoned. While in jail he used to send his short stories to well known writer, Jainendra. Since his name could not be used, Jainendra passed on his articles to Munshi Premchand saying that the writer's name was ‘Agyeya' meaning unknowable. --------------------------------- On my channel you can listen to Hindi and Urdu Stories by famous writers of Hindi sahitya/ literature.
