“हर्फ़ लफ़्ज़ों की तरफ़ लफ़्ज़ मआ’नी की तरफ़  लौट आए सभी किरदार कहानी की तरफ़” – अभिषेक शुक्ला ख़ुशक़िस्मत हैं वो जिन्हें अभिषेक शुक्ला की कहानी का किरदार बनने का मौक़ा मिलता है। किरदार भले ही छोटा सा हो और कुछ ही देर में कहानी से निकल जाए, किरदार से कहानी ता-उम्र नहीं निकलती। 2023

Though I can speak and understand Urdu fairly well, I was totally unable to read and write. So joining Abhishek Shukla-ji’s classes on zoom was the best thing I could have done to study Urdu properly.  Shukla-ji is a fine and patient teacher who communicates clearly and precisely. He makes sure that everyone in the

कोर्स से जुड़ने का तत्काल कारण- उर्दू की नस्तालीक़ लिपि सीखने की वजहें कई हैं और व्यक्तिगत हैं। मेरे लिए जो वजह मेरे सामने थी, वह सन सत्तावन से जुड़े कुछ दस्तावेज पढ़ने में दिक़्क़त थी। अगर किसी व्यक्ति को मुगलकालीन से ब्रिटिश कालीन इतिहास में रुचि है, तो यह लिपि सीखनी ही होगी। फ़िलहाल
