About this listen

काव्यों में नाटक सुन्दर माने जाते हैं ; नाटकों में "अभिज्ञान शाकुन्तल' सबसे श्रेष्ठ है ; शाकुन्तल में भी चौथा अंक और उस अंक में भी चार श्लोक अनुपम हैं। एक अनुभवी और विद्वान् आलोचक के इस कथन के बाद 'अभिज्ञान शाकुन्तल' के बारे में और यह कहा जा सकता है कि भारत की गोस्वशाती और समृद्ध परम्परा, सांस्कृतिक वैभव, प्रकृति के साथ मानवीय अंतरंगता, यहाँ तक कि वन्य जीवों के साथ भी बन्धुत्व की भावना-इन सबका महाकवि कालिदास ने इस नाटक में जैसा वर्णन किया है, वह वास्तव में अनुपम है। विश्व की अनेक भाषाओं में "अभिज्ञान शाकुन्तल' का अनुवाद हुआ है और सभी ने इसकी मुक्त की से प्रशंसा की है।

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.

Pretty good I guess

I've always heard this was a masterpiece and perhaps it is for the period it was created in. But it does feel a little tacky (again maybe it was inventive for the time) but it also puts into perspective how our dramas/stories have evolved with this theme also the writing style of our epics and myths in general. The narration is good but perhaps a touch over-the-top at times, sometimes subtly can be more poignant.

Masterpiece

I wish more and more people read Shakuntalam. I have read it many times. Now this audiobook do complete justice to it. Kudos to narrator and team. I doubt there will be any other masterpiece like Shakuntalam in history of humankind in its own genre of shringar ras.

हजार साल पहले ऐसा नाटक लिखा गया यकीन ही नहीं होता

इसे सुनने के बाद मैं उसके ख्यालों में खोया रहता हूं

कालिदास के सामने शेक्सपियर कुछ भी नहीं
