"Raavi Paar" - Across the river Raavi - is a short story steeped in partition trauma in which a father has to make a quick decision while crossing the border. Gulzar—born Sampooran Singh Kalra in 1934 in Dina, District Jhelum, now in Pakistan—is one of India’s foremost cultural icons. After spending his school years in Delhi, he moved to Bombay, where his poetic voice flourished through his association with the Progressive Writers’ Movement. The experience of Partition left a lasting impression on his imagination, bringing themes of displacement, separation, memory and lost homelands into much of his writing.Although widely celebrated as a poet, lyricist and filmmaker, Gulzar is equally a masterful storyteller. His acclaimed collections—including Raavi Paar, Dhuan and Half a Rupee Stories—explore ordinary people, complicated relationships, childhood, loneliness and the quiet ironies of everyday life. His storytelling is economical, visual and deeply humane. Rather than explaining everything, he often allows a small detail, an unfinished conversation or a moment of silence to reveal an entire emotional world. His stories carry the sensitivity and imagery of poetry while remaining firmly rooted in lived human experience.Gulzar’s remarkable creative repertoire extends beyond poetry, fiction and cinema to plays, ballets, music albums, television serials and books for children. His works have been translated into numerous languages and have received national and international acclaim. (Source: Literature Live! The Mumbai LitFest, 2024)Among his many honours are the 2002 Sahitya Akademi Award, the Padma Bhushan, the Academy Award and Grammy for “Jai Ho,” the Dadasaheb Phalke Award and the Jnanpith Award—recognition of a creative life in which poetry and storytelling have remained inseparable.Please subscribe to our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube channel ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠as well and share this audiobook with family and friends.🙏📩 [email protected]🌐 Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Dr.ManpreetDhindsaSahota/📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dr.manpreetsahota/📜 Threads - https://www.threads.net/@dr.manpreetsahota#manpreetsahota #PunjabiAudiobooks #PunjabiLiterature #PunjabiStories #pakistan #HindiLiterature #UrduStories #SouthAsianCulture #LiteratureLover #AudiobookChannel #AglaWarqa #ChaiLunge #redfmcanada #redfm93 #Gurmukhi, #punjabi , #punjabiliterature , #ManpreetSahota, #reading , #narration , #fiction , #education , #Storiesinpunjabi, #panjab

Epilogue to the Travelogue was written a few years after his return. He describes a unique Juloos taken out in Bombay and relates it to his travelogue.Mera Pakistani Safarnama (My Pakistani Travelogue) is a Punjabi travelogue by Balraj Sahni, based on his 1962 visit to Pakistan, more than a decade after Partition. Written in Punjabi and first serialised in 'Preet Lari' magazine in the early 1960s, the book documents Sahni’s journey through Lahore, Rawalpindi, Bhera, Jhang, and Sargodha—places tied to his childhood and pre-1947 life. Structured as a factual travel account, it records encounters with people, observations of cities and countryside, and recollections of institutions, homes, and streets shaped by displacement. The text is a primary literary document of post-Partition return, grounded in lived experience rather than political commentary, and remains a significant Punjabi prose work on memory, geography, and divided Punjab. The book is more relevant today in the politically charged and communal environment of the sub-continent.Balraj Sahni (1913–1973), born Yudhishthir Sahni in Rawalpindi (then British India, now Pakistan), was a prominent Indian actor, writer, and intellectual whose work bridged literature, theatre, and socially engaged cinema. He was educated at Government College Lahore and later at the University of Cambridge, where he studied English literature. His early professional life included teaching at Rabindranath Tagore’s Santiniketan (Visva-Bharati University), an experience that shaped his humanist outlook and cultural sensibilities.Sahni’s literary output was primarily in Punjabi and Hindi prose. His major writings include Mera Pakistani Safarnama Mera Russi Safarnama, documenting his travels in the Soviet Union; and Meri Filmi Aatmakatha, an autobiographical account of his life in cinema. He also wrote essays, diary fragments, and reflective prose that addressed culture, displacement, education, and social responsibility. His writing is valued for its clarity, observational detail, and grounding in lived experience rather than ideology.In cinema, Balraj Sahni was closely associated with Indian parallel and socially conscious cinema. He acted in over 100 films and is best remembered for roles that portrayed ordinary people with dignity and restraint. His performance as the impoverished rickshaw puller in Do Bigha Zamin (1953) is widely regarded as a landmark in Indian realist cinema and earned international recognition, including at the Cannes Film Festival. Other notable films include Dharti Ke Lal (1946), Kabuliwala (1961), Garm Hava(1973), Waqt(1965), and Haqeeqat (1964). His final major role in Garm Hava, released shortly before his death, addressed the condition of Muslims in post-Partition India and is considered one of the most important films on the subject.Sahni was also active in theatre and cultural movements, including the Indian People’s Theatre Association (IPTA), which aligned art with social change. His contribution to Indian art lies in his consistent commitment to realism, ethical storytelling, and the representation of marginalized lives.

Chapter 15 - The travel ends, but the yearning does not.Balraj Sahni takes the train back to Wagah border and brings back nostalgia, love and questions that his conscience poses to him.Mera Pakistani Safarnama (My Pakistani Travelogue) is a Punjabi travelogue by Balraj Sahni, based on his 1962 visit to Pakistan, more than a decade after Partition. Written in Punjabi and first serialised in 'Preet Lari' magazine in the early 1960s, the book documents Sahni’s journey through Lahore, Rawalpindi, Bhera, Jhang, and Sargodha—places tied to his childhood and pre-1947 life. Structured as a factual travel account, it records encounters with people, observations of cities and countryside, and recollections of institutions, homes, and streets shaped by displacement.
