Aakar Patel brings out Saadat Hasan Manto’s genius as a writer, while dealing with life’s most routine and exciting things like bumming cigarettes, graveyards, a film troupe with diverse characters from mythology, a harsh division of troubles the subcontinent faces even after 6 decades of partition, despicable politicians, and the futility of living in fear. One of the master storytellers of the 20th century, Saadat Hasan Manto proclaims that he was forced to write when his wife consistently asked him to earn for the family. He doesn't point to any sort of genius when he talks about his writing skills, but honestly tells his readers that some of his stories were penned even as he tended to his daughters or blended a salad. Manto also talks about two of his favourite and repetitive themes in his works - women and the India-Pakistan Partition. He attempts to bring to attention the strange morality in the perspectives of feminine beauty and the pointless existence of religiosity in the formation of a nation he had to choose later in life.
