Description

This Metropolis – which Metropolis?

I do not know whether anyone really reads Kashmiri Stories, but there is certainly no dearth of listeners of stories in Kashmiri. Whether the stories are recited on radio like dastaans or narrative poems, or whether they are enacted as plays on television, they have a vast audience. This is the reason why I will begin what I have to say with my play Yeli Vatan Khur Chhu Yivan (When Paths Become Entangled).
