Manage episode 296713722 series 2796935
This week on Naatak Radio, presenting Rashid Jahan's Dilli Ki Sair. A forerunner among a cohort of young, female, Urdu short story writers in the 1930s and 40s, Rashid Jahan - doctor and a political activist, is credited with freeing the tongues and pens of several generations of writers that followed, including the great Ismat Chugtai who considers Rashid Jahan as a literary mentor. “She spoilt me because she was very bold and used to speak all sorts of things openly and loudly, and I just wanted to copy her,” Chughtai would later write.
Dilli Ki Sair is one Rashid Jahan's most famous short stories. It is the story of the incidents that happened with a woman who came from Faridabad to Delhi for a trip with her husband. When she goes back to Faridabad, she narrates them to her friends, and the incidents are so interesting that she's asked to narrate them every time her friends gather at their house.
Performed by: Namita Chaubal
