One notable figure in Urdu literature is Shehzada Manzar, who is especially well-known for his work as a writer and journalist in Pakistan. His writings span a number of genres, including critical articles that analyse human experiences and social conventions, short stories, and a well-known novelette. Manzar is a key figure in modern Urdu literature because of his writing, which is distinguished by a profound comprehension of the intricacies of social issues and human emotions. The title of his novelette is the subject of a thorough analysis in this research paper, which also examines the cultural ramifications and layers of significance it contains. The study looks at how Manzar's story captures the complex social dynamics of Pakistan, especially with regard to mental health. It draws attention to the stigma associated with mental health conditions and stresses the importance of candid communication in promoting empathy and understanding. The report emphasises the significance of mental health as a crucial component of societal health by addressing these themes. The study also explores the urgent need for open dialogue around sexual issues in Pakistani society. Since these discussions are frequently frowned upon, many people feel alone and unsupported. These conversations are sparked by Manzar's writing, which promotes an environment in which people can open up about their experiences without worrying about being judged. According to the research, recognising and addressing sexual and mental health issues are crucial for both individual recovery and the advancement of society as a whole.This report, seen critically, promotes a change in society that would embrace and assist people who are dealing with mental health issues and sexual trauma. It urges everyone to work together to remove the obstacles preventing candid discussions in order to foster a society that is more caring and inclusive. In the end, the research's conclusions show how important literature is in shedding light on these important problems and opening the door to a more wholesome and compassionate society. Shehzada Manzar's work is one example of this.
