Welcome to the original storytelling by Galiyaara Podcast. मुझे लिखने का बहुत शौक है। शायद ज़्यादातर सबको ही होता है। पर मैं लिखता बहुत कम हूँ। लोग कई बार पूछते भी हैं की "भाई बहुत दिनों से कुछ लिखा नहीं?" उनको कौन बताए की मेरे भीतर का लेखक मौसमी है। जिस तरह चमेली का फूल हर साल अगस्त से जनवरी तक ही निकलता है, उसी तरह मेरे लेखन का भी एक मौसम है। हालाँकि चमेली की तरह इसका कोई मौसम तय नहीं है। बेमौसम ही मौसम है। चमेली का उदहारण मैंने क्यों दिया ये मुझे मालूम नहीं। बस मन में आ गया। हर किसी के लिखने के पीछे एक दिचस्प कहानी होती है। उसके जीवन में कुछ ऐसा घट जाता है की वो लेखक बन जाता है। कोई प्यार में होता है तो किसी को प्यार में धोका मिलता है। कोई जीत की ख़ुशी में होता है और कोई हार से हताश। इन्ही सभ घटनाओं के बीच लोग अपने भीतर का लेखक ढूंढ ही लेते हैं। मेरी ज़िन्दगी मैं ऐसी कोई दिचस्प घटना घटी नहीं। हाँ पर इतना ज़रूर याद है की जब मैं पांचवी क्लास में था तो एक शाम दीदी ने बोल दिया किया की कल तुम भी हमारे साथ एस्से-कम्पटीशन में हिस्सा ले रहे हो। वही पहला मौका याद है जब खुद से कुछ लिखा था। बिन ख़्यालों के हमारा लेखन कुछ नहीं है। मेरे भीतर ख्याल तो बहुत खूबसूरत आतें हैं पर मैं उनको उस क्षण लिखने में कोताही कर देता हूँ जब वो आए होते हैं। इस वजह से वो ख्याल बस ख्याल ही रह जाते हैं। ऐसे खूबसूरत ख्याल सुबह के सपने की तरह होते हैं। अगर आपने उठते ही किसी को नहीं बताया तो फिर वो याद आने से रहे। शायद इसी वजह से मैं अबतक बस अपने ख्यालों में ही एक लेखक हूँ। ख्यालों का आना बहुत ज़रूरी है। हमारे जीवन के ज़्यादातर खूबसूरत पल हमारे ख्याल ही हैं। अपने ख्यालों में हम वो सब सोच लेते हैं जो असलियत में पॉसिबल ही नहीं है। ख्यालों की विशेषता होती है, उनकी कोई बाउंड्री नहीं होती। सभी सीमाओं से परे। गरीब अपने ख्यालों में अमीर होता है, अपराधी अपने ख्यालों में निष्कलंकित और शाम को अपने घर से बहार जाने की इजाज़त ना पाने वाली लड़की, मोटरसाइकिल पर घूमता हुआ आवारा लड़का। ख्याल हैं कुछ भी आ सकते हैं। बिना किसी रोक टोक के। बराबर ख़्यालों का आना ही हमें बताता है की हम ज़िंदा हैं। ज़िंदा होने के एहसास के लिए ख़्याल उतने ही ज़रूरी हैं जितना रागों में खून का बहना। पर मैं अपने ख़्यालों में कुछ अठरंगी नहीं कर रहा होता हूँ। मेरे ख़्यालों का मुख्य आकर्षण मैं खुद ही रहता हूँ। कभी कुछ लिखता हुआ, कभी कुछ सोचता हुआ। लिखना क्या रहा हूँ ये मैं खुद नहीं जनता। सोच गहरी रहती है। शायद मैं सोच में एक कल्पना में खोया हूँ। उस कल्पना में मैं लिखने की कोशिश कर रहा हूँ। ठीक वैसे ही जैसे अभी लिख रहा हूँ। ढेर सारे ख़्याल, अनिगिनत बातें। इन महकते हुए ख़्यालों को देख कर मैं सोचता हूँ कि कहाँ से शुरू करूँ? हर ख़याल तो अपने ऊपर सोने की वरक़ लिए इधर उधर मँडरा रहा है। जैसे ही ख़्याल को लिखने जाता हूँ वैसे ही दूसरे की चमक बढ़ने लगती है। और ख्याल सुबह के सपने की तरह होते हैं। अगर आपने उठते ही किसी को नहीं बताया तो फिर वो याद आने से रहे। पर क्या करूँ मुझे लिखने का बहुत शौक है। शायद ज़्यादातर सबको ही होता है। पर मैं लिखता बहुत कम हूँ। लोग कई बार पूछते भी हैं की "भाई बहुत दिनों से कुछ लिखा नहीं?" उनको कौन बताए की मेरे भीतर का लेखक मौसमी है।

Welcome to original storytelling by Galiyaara Podcast. Har subah, ‘subah’ jaisi nahin hoti hai. Har saveraa roshni nahin laataa hai। kuchh andheri raato se bhi jyaadaa tamas se bhare hote hain. Kuchh gahraaeyon se bhi jyaadaa gahre hote hain. Main saveraa aane hi nahin detaa hun. Use bhi apni raaton men jod letaa hun। aathon pahar ke chakke ko ghumaa detaa hun. Din ko raat kar detaa hun। raat ko raat hi rahne detaa hun। kabhi-kabhi apne ghar men hi ‘jet-lag’ jhel letaa hun. Good marning ke ‘Good’ se bharosaa uth chukaa hai. Savere ke andhere se bachne ke lia maine jindgi ko ek alag aayaam men mod diyaa. Main pdhtaa to pahle se hi thaa abhi aur bhi bahut kuchh pdhne lagaa. Is priathvi ke niymon se ghrinaa hone lagi aur bhagvaan ke astitv se shak. Par kyaa hi kartaa thak haar ke, traiphik men phase es man ko lekar bhagvaan ke paas hi pahunchaa. ‘shri kriashn govind hare muraari’ se shuruaat ki aur dhire-dhire ‘vedaant aur yog’ ki gali men takraa gayaa। saaraa jyaan ghot kar pi liyaa। kul milaakar ek baat samajh men aai ki jab bojh jyaadaa ho jaaa to use bhagvaan ke sar par daal do। khud n sambhalne par saari galti prabhu ke upar daal do aur rati-rataai laaen to hai hi ‘bhagvaan ki marji yahi thi’. Kyon bhaai? meri galti, meraa bojh। main bhagvaan ko kyon de dun? mere man men maujud bhid bdhti hi jaa rahi। koi grin signal nahin hai. Sabhi khyaal maano ek chauraahe par khde hokar harn maare jaa rahen hain। kisi ko aage nahin bdhnaa hai, bas thahre hi rahnaa hai। thaharnaa bhi thik hi rahtaa hai par ye bhid men nahin. Pahle jivan men thahraav thaa। vythaaan bhi thi par phir bhi thahraav thaa। vaapas se un vythaaon kaa slaaed sho jab chalaataa hun to sab kaalpanik lagti hain Maano anaatmvaad ke samundr men dubi jaa rahi hain। ab sirph ek vythaa hai aur vo bhi ek samundr men jaa rahi hai magar us aur jidhar kinaaraa hi nahin. Main apne aapko bataayaa kartaa hun ki es vythaa kaa mujhapar koi phark nahin pdtaa। magar phir bhi main navagrah ki tarah es vythaa ke suraj kaa chakkar kaat rahaa hun. Aisaa nahin hai ki mere jivan men vythaaan hi hameshaa se rahi hain. Mujhe mohabbat aksar huaa karti hai. Mohabbat karne ke lia jruri nahin ko koi mehbub bhi ho। vaise agar ho to achchhaa hi hai. Mujhmen to kisi bhi chij se mohabbat karne kaa hunar hai. Mujhe lekhni se bahut mohabbat hai। mujhe har prkaar ki kalaa se bahut mohabbat hai। aur ye shaayad esalia hai kyonki mujhe har aparampraagat chijon se hi mohabbat hai। mujhe khud se bhi mohabbat hai. Mohabbat kaa khyaal to har raat aataa hai। aise khyaalo se raaten jaldi bit jaati hain। kabhi-kabhi main chintaamukt ho jaataa hai। jo thahraav chaahia vo aa jaataa hai। chintaa kyaa hai mujhe nahin pataa। thahraav to kabhi-kabhaar jruri hai। meri raaten aur tumhaari raaton men antar hai. Tumhaari raaten jaldi shuru hoti hai meri thodi der se. Par mujhe der se sharu hone vaali raaten pasand nahin. Unmen subah jaldi hoti hai। aur har subah, ‘subah’ jaisi nahin hoti hai। har saveraa roshni nahin laataa hai। kuchh andheri raato se bhi jyaadaa tamas se bhare hote hai.

Ep 22: Ashish Ranjan Jha on his book 'Barsi hai Ganga'

Hello everyone, welcome to the new episode of our podcast Galiyaara. For more such podcasts visit our website https://srmpodcasts.com/ Ashutosh Nadkar is originally from Madhya Pradesh. He has been active in print, television, and web journalism for the past two decades. In this episode, we are discussing with him about his book 'Shakuni- Master of the Game'. Link to Shakuni: https://amzn.to/2CnG7QJ In this interview, Ashutosh told us that most of the characters of Mahabharat are grey but we either portray them as black or white. Shakuni is one such character. He was the main strategist of the Kauravas. But if we go through all the literature of Mahabharat available, we will find that there hasn't been much written about Shakuni. Since ages his voice is unheard and he hasn't got the opportunity to present his point. Ashutosh's book is not presenting Shakuni as a hero but is very successful in depicting the story of Shakuni from the point of view of Shakuni. Shakuni- Master of Game is intriguing and a must-read. Threatened by the formidable Kuru dynasty, the kingdom of Gandhara is forced to marry off its princess to the blind king of Kuru, Dhritarashtra. Enraged by this defeat, shaken, the heir to the Gandhara kingdom, vows to seek revenge. He uses the Kauravas and Pandavas as Pawns in a cleverly crafted game of deceit and destruction and watches as the mighty Kuru kingdom crumbles. Told through the gripping perspective of shakti, this retelling of the Mahabharata asks the burning question –was Shakuni really the vilest of all villains or the victim of a grave injustice?.
