Tafreeh Ki Ek Dopahar - Khalid Jawed - Bog

Khalid Jawed has tried to look at play and entertainment from his point of view in this story and highlights the entertainment side of both cinema hall and bazaar-the story sometimes goes straight and sometimes starts like a flashback. The narrator of this story is "I" who has now become a ghost. He brings to us the memories of his past. When 'I' was fifteen years old, he met a girl named Parveen. She had said that she would study at the same level as him but the rotation days did not allow them to meet. The last time he saw the poor girl, she was suffering from asthma, which she had inherited from her mother, who was always sitting on the doorstep of her dilapidated house, coughing and sputtering. When he returned to the city ten years later, he found Parveen coughing on someone's doorstep.
Personifying the cough and walking with it on the soles of the shoes and then finally having the character 'I' rub the cough vigorously on the burning road of Koltar - what? How many questions arise in the mind.
Any quality in writing or speech does not arise automatically, it must have some basis. It is this basis that takes the creative instinct to the heights. Let us see how the storyteller reacts to market and cinema entertainment and the limitations of both. Today we see that old buildings or cinemas are being demolished and big malls are being built there. The market is born out of the subversion of spectacle and play, but the distinction presented here by Khalid Jawed is insightful.
