    Kulfi! (ਕੁਲਫੀ!)- Principal Sujan Singh | Dr. Ruminder | Punjabi Short Story

    Kulfi! (ਕੁਲਫੀ!)- Principal Sujan Singh | Welcome, dear listeners! I am truly honored to share my narration of one of the most powerful and moving stories in classic Punjabi literature: 'Kulfi' (ਕੁਲਫੀ), penned by the legendary Principal Sujaan Singh. This is more than just a Punjabi Kahani; it is a raw, emotional mirror reflecting the struggles of the middle class. I was deeply moved while recording the tale of the working father, whose salary runs dry too quickly, leaving him unable to afford a simple treat for his innocent son, 'Kaka.' The shame and regret he feels, leading him to avoid his own home just to escape the simple demand for Kulfi, is heartbreakingly relatable. The core of this story, for me, lies in the intense theme of Poverty and Self-Respect. When Kaka finally acts, he forces his father to confront his own lack of courage. It’s an unforgettable climax that gives profound meaning to the final, revolutionary line: "A brave son has taken birth at the home of a coward." I encourage you to listen to this entire story and reflect on your own struggles with dignity and circumstance.

    Badalaan de ohle da Suraj- Balwant Phalwari | Dr. Ruminder | Punjabi Short Story

    Badalaan de ohle da Suraj- Balwant Phalwari | ਬੱਦਲਾਂ ਦੇ ਓਹਲੇ ਦਾ ਸੂਰਜ!- ਬਲਵੰਤ ਫ਼ਰਵਾਲੀ | A daughter's illness, a father's pain, and a crisis of faith... This compelling short story by Balwant Phulwari follows the life of Comrade Gurmeet Singh, a staunch communist and socialist whose principles were forged in his university days. He champions logic, equality, and rational thought. Yet, a desperate situation—his daughter Neha's mysterious declining health—forces him into a setting he despises: the religious gathering (Dera) of Baba Phuman. Gurmeet finds himself sitting among the devotees, silently pitying their blind faith, even as he hopes the 'Baba' might cure his child. The arrival of local politicians underscores the very hypocrisy he fights against. Will he sacrifice his lifelong atheist beliefs for the chance of a miracle? What happens when it is his turn to bring Neha forward for blessings? An unexpected event occurs at the Dera that reaffirms Gurmeet's socialist ideology and changes the course of the day. This is a deep dive into the conflict between Superstition vs. Logic and the idealism of communism versus the harsh realities of modern Punjabi society. Don't miss the powerful climax of this classic Punjabi short story!

When two sons stake their "davedari" (claim) to the sacred sword, the legendary weapon suddenly becomes the epicentre of a silent war. To settle the matter, the patriarch Jawala Singh reveals a truth the family never knew: The story of the seventh murder. What unsung act of sacrifice or betrayal lies hidden in the sword's past?

    Unglaan!- Balwant Gargi | ਉਂਗਲਾਂ!-ਬਲਵੰਤ ਗਾਰਗੀ | Dr. Ruminder | Punjabi Short Story

    Unglaan!- Balwant Gargi | ਉਂਗਲਾਂ!-ਬਲਵੰਤ ਗਾਰਗੀ | This isn't merely a story; it is a poignant meditation on nostalgia and the enduring power of first love. 'Ungalan' masterfully traces the emotional landscape of its female protagonist, a woman whose present is momentarily eclipsed by the vivid memories of her childhood. The narrative centers on a pure, unspoken bond with a boy from her past—a blissful connection forged through shared games and simple moments, symbolically encapsulated in the gentle touch of their "Ungalan" (fingers). It is a time capsule of their innocent friendship, untouched by the complexities of the adult world. As life intervenes, pushing them toward separate destinies, this precious association is fractured by the inevitable hustle and bustle of adulthood. The true emotional weight of the story lies in the silent, solitary return of the grown man and woman to the cherished places of their youth. Each visits the same grounds, years later, unknowingly unified by the indelible marks of memory and the ghost of a love that was never fully realized. 'Ungalan' is a heartfelt testament to the way time changes everything, yet fails to erase the sacred imprint of genuine connection on the human soul.
