    03. Rashid Jahan's play 'Mard aur Aurat' feat. Arti from StoryJam Podcast | रशीद जहाँ 'मर्द और औरत' नाटक | Dramatic Reading

    03. Rashid Jahan's play 'Mard aur Aurat' feat. Arti from StoryJam Podcast | रशीद जहाँ 'मर्द और औरत' नाटक | Dramatic Reading

    Rashid Jahan was an Indian writer and practising medical doctor known for her Urdu literature, feminist stories, plays, and social commentaries. She wrote short stories and plays and contributed to  Angarey, a 1932 collection of unconventional short stories in collaboration with other writers, often seen as the start of the  Progressive Writers Movement. Angarey was subsequently banned from publication and distribution.  'Mard Aur Aurat' is a one-act play by Rashid Jahan; a dialogue between an unnamed couple about the gender hierarchies, economic freedom of women and equal responsibilities of man and woman in child rearing -  topics still hotly debated in the 'modern' times we live in.   

    @Arti Jain is a storyteller, filmmaker and podcaster who is currently the Digital  Editor at Nayi Dhara - one of the oldest Hindi literary magazines in  India. She is also the creator and host of the StoryJam podcast. You can listen to her work and know more about her at the following links:

Nalini Jayaraman ,

An excellent podcast

I am so thankful to both of you for bringing Hindi literature to this medium (podcast). Love your discussion on the stories. I wish I could participate. You have very good voice and style of reading the stories. I am hoping you will continue to read more poetry and stories in future. I wanted to write this review in Hindi but couldn’t find Sh on my QWERTY keyboard. So resorted to English.
By the way, loved Gulzar’s story Dhuan very much.
