Overview
Ek Shaam Premchand Ke Naam is an anthology of Premchand's short stories and stage adaptations of the same, along with glimpses into some of his defining life events. The narrative is very engrossing and presentation very dramatically visual. Kafan - A dark comedy and a heart-wrenching story. It deals with the survival instincts of the dirt poor. Sadgati - Premchand deals with the social exploitation of the untouchables, their abject poverty and their dehumanization by the upper class. A dark truth which keeps re-surfacing even in today's India... Panch Parmeshwar- A story of responsible behavior, when you are put in a position of power. Poos Ki Raat- A story of a poor farmer who struggles to ward off the bitter cold of winter nights, with only his dog for company. Premchand believed that literature is a powerful means to raise social awareness. His greatness lies in the fact that he lived by the principles he so effectively weaved in his stories. The life events of Munshi Premchand and his great stories come alive in this very visual style of presentation in Ek Shaam Premchand Ke Naam.
