माफ़ कीजिये मगर मेरे हिसाब और रिसर्च से ये कन्हैया लाल मुंशी वाली कहानी अधूरी है. पिछले साल मैने कुछ पुराने दस्तावेज खंगाले हैं. और हंस का प्रचलित इतिहास विश्वस्त नहीं है. Sharing a few bits in this thread- गुस्ताखी माफ़
@profapm @MrinalPande1 @irfaniyat @varungrover @asadkidwai
@profapm @MrinalPande1 @irfaniyat @varungrover @asadkidwai प्रेमचंद ने अपने नाम के आगे 'मुंशी' शब्द का इस्तेमाल खुद कभी नहीं किया। न किसी ख़त में इसका ज़िक्र मिलता है न किसी समकालीन लेखकों के संस्मरणों में, हां, साल 1937 की 'हंस' पत्रिका में वो अपने उपनाम 'नवाबराय' पर मज़ाक करते हुए ज़रूर पढ़े गए।
'हंस' शुरु में तो प्रेमचन्द ने खुद ही निकाली थी, बनारस में सरस्वती प्रेस से, और 1943 की बायोग्राफी के मुताबिक, 1935 में के. एम. मुंशी पहली बार को-एडिटर बने.. उससे पहले के अखबारों में प्रेमचन्द के साथ मुंशी लिखा गया (1934 की कटिंग)
बड़े लोगों से बहस करने की गुस्ताखी नहीं कर सकता पर जब ऐसे तथ्यों को बिना किसी दस्तावेज के सहारे इतिहास बनाया जाता है तो लगता है, सच मान लिया जाता है | कई जनों ने इसकी पुष्टि कर दी होै चटखारे वाली कहानी को साहित्यिक ब्रांड की पुष्टि मिल जाती है @omthanvi @drsureshpant
इतिहास मे वापस जाता हूं- मुंशी प्रेमचंद अप्रेल1934 में मुंबई गये फ़िल्मों के लिये और अप्रेल 1935 को वापस आ गये. उस दौर की फ़िल्मों की खबरों में उनका नाम मुंशी ही लिखा गया| कन्हैयालाल मुंशी से राष्ट्रीय भाषा सामेलन को लेकर मुलाकातें इसी दौर की थीं मगर हंस से उसका लेना देना नहीं था
1935 में इंदौर में हिन्दी साहित्य सम्मेलन में साथ आने के बाद प्रेमचंद और कन्हैयालाल मुंशी साथ जुड़े और सितम्बर 1935 में पहली बार हंस के लिये को-एडिटर बने [उससे पहले प्रेमचंद के साथ मुंशी लिखा जा चुका था’ [pic : Madan Gopal's biography of 1944]
अक्तूबर 1936 में मुंशी जी के देहांत के बाद उन दिनो के अखबारों ने जो समाचार और श्रद्धांजलि छापी वो यहां रख रहा हूं। सबने उनके नाम के साथ मुंशी लगाया है, टैगोर ने भी
अखबारों के कहे पे शायद किसी को यकीं ना आये तो ये 1927 में छपा उनका उपन्यास पेश है

चौगान ए हस्ती
हिस्सा ए अव्वल
"मुंशी" प्रेमचंद
मुसन्निफ़ प्रेम पचीसी,बप्रेम बत्तीसी, बाज़ार ए हुस्न वघरह

[हिन्दी तर्जुमा- @asadkidwai शुक्रिया]
बात अल्प विराम की गलती की नहीं है.. अगर ये कहानी सच्ची हो तो अपने ज़िंदा रहते मुंशी प्रेमचंद जी ने या के. एम. मुंशीं ने इस गलती का खंडन क्यूं नहीं किया.. जबकि उनके ज़िन्दा रहते सारी व्यक्तिगत खबर इसी नाम से छपती थी
Two more definite accounts of Premchand's Munshi was a title [& not a typing mistake] are documents quoted verbatim in Madan Gopal's #Premchand definite biography of 1943

1. 1907 review of his novel in Zamana
2. 1909 Letter of his posting as Sub Deputy to Inspector of Schools
Madan Gopal's definite & extensive biography of Premchand published in 1943 (1955 reprint) is available online (& for PDF download) in a good condition - thanks to DLI

बड़ी समस्या ये है के कई अखबारों /न्यूज़ साईट्स ने अल्प विराम की गलती को रस ले कर छापा है, बिना सत्यापन के और एक किस्म का डॉक्युमेन्टेशन क्रियेट किया हैे खबर का रूप दे कर @scroll_in @PatrikaNews @JagranNews

#Wordle 289 #Yesterday

#Gulzar for #Salman - Jaan.E.Mann is a fav soundtrack (of a disappointing film)..

सौ हसरतें, पर तेरा ग़म नहीं #g

Jaan.E.Mann was a terrific album of its time with an amazing set of songs which were Poetic, Melodious, Youthful, Visual & Experimental with a sane #AnuMalik at work with #Gulzar & Sonu as the key drivers

सब्र से इश्क़ महरूम है #gulzar

My fav is the grand musical innovative take where d song becomes interesting tool for story telling to convey d back-story of protagonists (romance-marriage-career- mistakes-separation-divorce) in just 8mins song #JaanEMann

Today was the 1st death anniv of my Father, who we lost last year for #Corona. Although his presence is still so strong in our home tht we always find him sitting in the favorite corner of the house. He is responsible for our musical upbringing. Sharing a childhood musical memory Image
कभी महफ़िल में कभी गोशा-ए-तन्हाई में
कोई रह-रह के रुलाये तो ग़ज़ल होती है

Today also marks Birthday of Ghazal Singer Ghulam Ali & my father had organized 1of his earliest Indian concerts in January 1983 in Kota. The date was 16th Jan 1983 and I had just entered in the Teen club. Image
It was early 80s, For long Ghulam Ali saab was struggling to get an Indian VISA for concerts & film recordings though he had become a household name for his popularity thru record sales. He got it in 1983 & he agreed for the Kota schedule which was getting postponed for his VISA Image

"Plasma is Sunil Gavaskar"
-sharing my personal experience on Plasma treatment in Covid19

Nov-20, My mother-in-law was admitted in ICU in a Delhi Hospital. Doctors were asking us daily to arrange Blood Plasma from ex-Covid patients for a possibility of recovery 1/n @Harneetsin
She was on ventilator and We had treating Doctors telling us Daily to arrange Blood Plasma as the only hope for a recovery as things were not improving, For them they have tried everything except Plasma, so we need to get it anyhow for a possible recovery 2/n @SufiyanaSoul
Since my father was on Ventilator too in Jaipur, my brother-in-law was running around entire Delhi to arrange for plasma as only hope. Plasma center was 2.5hrs drive from Hospital. Thru his office network My Brother-in-Law arranged for many donors, but none worked. 3/n @vicramb

Sad to hear about the death of veteran actress #Shashikala, An extra to start with, graduating to a heroine & a charming character actor,a sizzling dancer & a vamp with a strong impact. Shashiji was part of some very significant cinematic memories & songs
#Shashikala had a charming presence and carried an oomph factor onscreen but the way she utilized her acting skills for the onscreen vamp as a club dancer (Kala Bazaar), a blackmailer (Gumrah), a torturous step mother (Sargam) or a cruel Saas in many of 80s, she delivered a punch
Yet I would remember #Shashikala for some of the unforgettable musical memories, the songs she got featured in and graced the songs giving them a character.

Loved her in films like Bimal da's #Sujata & Hrishi da's #Anupama as a sibling contrast to lead
