Urdu Fiction Aur Cinema

No significant studies have been done on the subject or on any similar subject till now, Urdu fiction and Indian films. In this sense, this book by Rizwan-ul-Haq is the first letter on this subject. It cannot be said that this work is absolute perfect, but the author has tried as much as possible to leave no gaps. So far, only three articles on this topic have come across to me: 'Fiction to Film' by Fuzail Jafri, 'Fiction in the Context of Electronic Media' by Prof. Khalid Saeed and 'Urdu Fictional Literature and Hamari Films' by Prem Pal Ashq. Such an important subject has been completely neglected in Urdu till now.All the movies based on Urdu literary fiction are included in this book. Premchand is a fiction writer in both Hindi and Urdu. Some of his novels and fictions have different titles in Hindi and whenever films have been made on this type of literature, they often have Hindi texts in front of them and often the names of the films are also based on Hindi texts. Premchand's fiction films are as much Hindi as Urdu. For the author, all films are Urdu films. The certificate doesn't mean anything to them. When a pure Urdu film like 'Mughal-e-Azam' is given the certificate of a Hindi film, it cannot be doubted that it is Hindi or Hindustani. So is a movie Hindi or Urdu? It cannot be judged from the film's certificate.
