I lovvved listening to this (especially the Urdu parts) in your voice! Urdu se aap ki dosti hamesha barkaraar rahe! (All the Urdu I know is from the movies 🤷🏾♂️)
Loved reading this! And keep writing in all the languages you can. All our languages, including Urdu, speak to each other beautifully and to us when we let them.
Loved this sooooo much Sanobar - your words and the page from your notebook! Fully feeling the playfulness and love of Ochre Sky too ❤️❤️ though I couldn't be in this workshop, i feel like my dosti with Urdu has started a little from here. Thank you for that!
Maza aa gaya, Doel. I've been smiling since morning lol waise they're doing a workshop in October too and from the looks of it, I think they'll do plenty more :) Thank you for always reading me with so much love :)
Woah! Finally got a chance to listen to this. Bohot khoob! So poetic and beautifully put together. Loved it, Sanobar. I'm too terrified to sign up but I keep gazing at the poster for the October sessions and think 'maybe'...
ik mukhtasir se kahani mai apne dil se yahan rakam karoin, agar ap ijazat dain, Pakistan se hone ke nate, bachpan mai mujhe Urdu na likhni ati thi aur na parhni, mai humesha fail hoti thi. Fast forward to being 18 years old, mujhe apni zaban mai likhi howe kitab se pehli dafa meri ammi ki dost Dr Sehar ne mutarif karwa tha, Peer e Kamil by Umera Ahmed aur Namal by Nemrah Ahmed. thori mushkil hue lekin mai ne parh liya, aur tab se ajj doh saal ho gaye hain, Urdu ki parhai aur likhai mai waze farak mehsos ho raha hai.
Meri Dua hai, that you succeed in this beautiful language. Try listening to Urdu audiobooks which will help alot.
This is so beautiful! As an Indian based in the UAE I can tell you I've always been fascinated by Indo-Pak stories. Aap soch nahin skti aap k is note ki kya ehmeeyat hai mere liye! Jitna shukr ada karun kam hai. Waise, aap k mulk se logon ne humare saath Ochre Sky Stories mein saath likha hai. Covid ka yahi toh ek faeda hua hai ki hum zoom pr duniya bhar se mulaqaat kr sktey hain. Agar aap interested hon toh main October mein phir inke saath ek session karun. Barey shauq se :)) No pressure! Just wanted to share a beautiful idea ❤️ Thank you so much for the kindest note ever!
Karam nawazish hai, zarur zarur, mujhe btaye ga iss session ke bare mai, Zindagi be had muktasir hai, isko taluqat bhna ne mai sarf karna chahye na ke torne mai. Love to you and keep learning Urdu. Will be looking to reading more inshallah. 💖
Unfortunately I don't have the option to sign up, the payment method they are using is not available in Pakistan although it is available in UAE, you are free to join however, ofcourse.
They'll offer an alternative. I'm already attending their current workshop and would attend Oct one only to write with you :) Try emailing them wrna phir kabhi :) I've attended quite a few workshops but these guys remain one of the most loved ones ❤️
Now that you mention it, I'm confused if it was Jamshedpur ki shaam ya Mirzapur ki shaam lol but, my mamu was in police Savvy and at one point was posted in Jamshedpur. He chose to settle there with his family :) I'd visited them in Jamshedpur before my graduation and totally loved the place!

I missed you guys so much, Karthik! And thank you for the compliment :))
Loved reading this! And keep writing in all the languages you can. All our languages, including Urdu, speak to each other beautifully and to us when we let them.
Thank you, Ronita! I'm learning to allow myself to enjoy writing in whatever medium I can and in as many mediums I can!
نہیں کھیل اے داغ یاروں سے کہہ دو

Wow! Absolutely loved reading this while listening to you read it aloud. And that last line 🥲
Thank you, Ila! Us last line ko mujhe sticker banana hai :p
Absolutely brilliant Sanobar! I loved the narration. Your voice has great character. Looking forward to more such writings / narrations in urdu :)
Haiii that’s so encouraging! Thank you :))
Pyari Sanobar,
