    13. Ghalib, Iqbal, Faraz in Madhushala | मधुशाला में ग़ालिब, इक़बाल, फराज़

    You can read the full script of this episode on ⁠Madhushala Blog here⁠. In the previous episode, we shared the story of ‘Chamma’ (Lachhminiya aka Chamarin Amma), who was she to newly born Harivansh Rai and what effect she had on his poetry, written much later. There was another story of Bachchan’s birth in ‘Mool Nakshatra’ and what happened because of that! Today we start with some poetic banter between Ghalib, Iqbal and others. There is also a story of Professor Amarnath Jha and how is he related to Dr. Bachchan. पिछले अंक में हमने बात की थी की बच्चन जी के बचपन में लछमिनियाँ कौन थी, उन्हें चम्मा क्यूँ कहते थे और उनका बच्चन जी पर क्या असर रहा, और एक बात की थी उनके मूल नक्षत्र में जन्म होने की – आज शुरुआत करते हैं ग़ालिब और इकबाल की कुछ बातों से – ग़ालिब कहते हैं: "ज़ाहिद शराब पीने दे मस्जिद में बैठ कर - या वो जगह बता दे जहाँ ख़ुदा न हो" आगे क्या हुआ सुनते हैं एपिसोड में, और चर्चा करते हैं बच्चन जी के गुरु प्रोफेसर अमरनाथ झा की, चलिए सुनते हैं:  सजें न मस्जिद और नमाज़ी कहता है अल्लाताला, सजधजकर, पर, साकी आता, बन ठनकर, पीनेवाला, शेख, कहाँ तुलना हो सकती मस्जिद की मदिरालय से, चिर विधवा है मस्जिद तेरी, सदा सुहागिन मधुशाला (48) And - बिना पिये जो मधुशाला को बुरा कहे, वह मतवाला, पी लेने पर तो उसके मुँह पर पड़ जाएगा ताला, दास द्रोहियों दोनों में है जीत सुरा की, प्याले की, विश्वविजयिनी बनकर जग में आई मेरी मधुशाला (24) And - ज्ञात हुआ यम आने को है ले अपनी काली हाला, पंडित अपनी पोथी भूला, साधू भूल गया माला, और पुजारी भूला पूजा, ज्ञान सभी ज्ञानी भूला, किन्तु न भूला मरकर के भी पीनेवाला मधुशाला (86) There are so many memories from Bachchan's life that cannot be told in one episode, so watch out for more :-) ----------------------- Welcome to Madhushala Podcas(मधुशाला), based on Harivansh Rai Bachchan's epic poetry, written in 1935 and part of the trilogy of Madhubala and Madhukalash.
