Ironing in old bad customer

Very nice novel, loved it, just awesome. Society has many dad customs, this novel exposed agony of widow ladies, society should be liberal to accept and give respect and try to rehabilitate them.

Premchand never disappoints

Remarkable story 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

बेहद उम्दा कहानी, सौ साल पहले लिखी गई लेकिन आज के दौर में भी लागू । कहानी का वाचन भी बेहद सराहनीय है ।🙏🏻🙏🏻

Premchand story means masterpiece.

Premchand is undoubtedly the King of stories/Novels. His creations justifies the name, all the characters and their exact human emotions.
time may fly, world might have developed as a society/race. but the emotions to the situations will always act in raw form. Premchand ji understood that in those days with limited educational background and scope to great writings. Still he had created masterpiece like this one. He was truly a genius. his writings will always stay timeless, ageless.

and Narrator's narration is fabulous, addictive 👏👏.
