  • Summary

  • Jalal-ud-din-Mohammad Akbar, also known as Akbar, was one of the most famous Mughal kings and he reigned India during the 16th century. Akbar, unlike other Mughal emperors, was keen to have talented people in his court irrespective of their religion. He had nine gems in his court and amongst them, Birbal was widely considered the most intelligent. A Brahmin by birth, Birbal’s original name was Mahesh Das and he met Akbar first time when he helped Akbar and his courtiers find the way back to their kingdom after having lost their way while on a hunting trip.

    Akbar and Birbal’s friendship lasted for 30 years before Birbal became a casualty of a war with North West tribes and it is said that Akbar went into a deep mourning for 2 days on hearing this and didn’t eat any food. Numerous Akbar Birbal stories from this time have been passed on from one generation to another in which Akbar will test Birbal’s skills by throwing him into tricky situations and Birbal had to use his wit to get out of them.

  • The Portrait (छाया चित्र)

    The Portrait (छाया चित्र)
    Apr 5 2024

    Once a wicked merchant called in a painter and asked him to make an exact replica portrait of himself with the condition that if it is any different than his true face, he will not pay a penny. When the painter came back to show his work, the merchant tweaked his facial impressions and kept troubling the painter needlessly. The poor painter eventually saught Birbal's help to teach the merchant a good lesson.

Childhood memories

"Akbar Birbal" is a timeless collection of tales that have delighted audiences for centuries, showcasing the wit and wisdom of Birbal, who was celebrated as one of the nine gems in the Mughal empire under Emperor Akbar. Unfortunately, this podcast adaptation falls short of doing justice to this literary masterpiece.

The stories of Birbal's quick thinking and clever logic have been recounted through generations, and they deserve an adaptation that captures their essence and depth. However, this podcast presents these tales in extremely short chapters, each lasting a mere 3 to 4 minutes. This brevity robs the stories of the opportunity to unfold naturally and engage listeners in the intricate and humorous narratives.

One of the key strengths of Akbar Birbal's tales lies in their ability to convey profound lessons through entertaining stories. In this podcast, the abbreviated chapters sacrifice the depth and complexity that make these tales so enduring. As a result, they feel rushed and lack the charm that has made them beloved classics.

Moreover, the quality of narration does little to compensate for the brevity. The narration falls short of capturing the nuances and humor of the original tales, leaving much to be desired in terms of engagement and entertainment.

In conclusion, "Akbar Birbal" is a collection of stories that deserves a more comprehensive and thoughtful adaptation. While the podcast may serve as a brief introduction to these timeless tales, it ultimately falls short of delivering the rich storytelling and clever wit that have made Akbar Birbal a beloved part of Indian folklore. For those seeking a more satisfying exploration of these tales, it may be worth revisiting older, more extensive adaptations.

Full of ads

Frustrated by so many ads. Really bad. Hated it. If they give you two minutes of story, there will be 5 minutes of ad.
