“Vardan” is one of the thought-provoking short stories written by Munshi Premchand, the legendary writer of modern Hindi-Urdu literature. In this emotionally powerful tale, Premchand highlights the complexities of human relationships, social injustice, and moral values, weaving a narrative around the concept of a “blessing” (Vardan) and its consequences.Like many of his works, Vardan showcases Premchand’s mastery over rural settings, realistic characters, and social themes such as poverty, family duties, women’s struggles, and societal expectations. It remains a timeless piece that resonates deeply with readers even today, especially those interested in literary fiction rooted in Indian culture.
