An Interview with Naseeruddin Shah

Dear Rohan,

You could have talked a bit about the play itself, rather than beating around this bush and that, thereby wasting my precious internet time.

In response to Anita Zaidi (Reply #: 6)

Dear Anita Zaidi:

I wonder if oral historic and ethnographic traditions are barely developed in Pakistan, let alone taken seriously. Indian scholarship on the issues of nationalism, culture, partition, migration, and diaspora is definitely far superior to ours due to their long and well-developed tradition of social sciences and humanities. A pay-off of a more balanced educational system in India.

We (South Asians) still have time to preserve an important chapter of our history such that we develop a better sense of the meaning of mutual cooperation and peaceful coexistence.

Sincerely, Bilal Ahamd
