Puran Gaatha Engelska 2024

The Partition continues to cast its long shadow on the Indian psyche. Puran Chand, who migrated from Pakistan on foot when he was just nine years old, spends his life mastering the art of reinvention: a farmhand in his childhood, he became an army soldier at eighteen, only to be relieved pension-less eight years later, having lost his left hand in an off-duty accident. Struggling to make ends meet, the newly-married Puran takes up any job that comes his way—office peon, shopkeeper, street vendor—gradually becoming a small landowning farmer. In the winter of his life, Puran lives in the lap of comforts in Chandigarh as his children have risen to coveted roles across industries—particularly, son Govardhan Gabbi, a noted Punjabi writer, and granddaughter Wamiqa Gabbi, a popular actress working in Punjabi and Hindi films.
