Madhushala by Harivansh Rai Bachchan - Available in different formats to cherish. |
If we consider the most important creations in Hindi Literature then the precious poetry in “Madhushala” by Sh. Harivansh Rai Bachchan should be one of the first on your must read list.
The book has verses with power of teaching you the way of living life and they also have the power to heal. Its quite possible that after reading and understanding them, you may find a new way to look upon your own life.
For all you wish to experience it, I would like to share the info on formats in which “Madhushala” is available around the world.
Madhushala (Authentically as a Book)
For the real readers and book lovers who want to feel the depth written on the paper, the book is available in India published by Rajpal & Sons. In fact the entire literature by Sh. Harivansh Rai Bachchan (including his autobiography) is published by them in different versions and titles.
Sh. Bchchan uses hindi in its unadultrated form which at times may be tough to understand for the youth of today’s ever changing times. But as you get into it deeply and reach the hidden meaning then it will make your feel lighter and free.
Madhushala (As an Audio CD)
There are two editions of Audio Cds in which selected verses of Madhushala and other poems of Sh. Harivansh Rai Bachchan have been rendered by two prominent personalities of Indian Film Industry.
By Manna Dey – This includes the maestro singing “Madhushala” in his own unique style and voice.
By Amitabh Bachchan Himself – The son pays his humble tribute by singing his favourite poems from the various books of Sh. Bachchan in his world famous voice and style. Both these audio cds have been released by Saregama in India and available in the market.
Madhushala (Sung by Amitabh Bachchan in a special tribute programme by Sahara)
For instant experience just search for this clip at Youtube, where Amitabh is superbly enjoying singing “Madhushala” in a special program organized by Sahara. You will surely cherish this not to be missed rendition by the incomparable Amitabh Bachchan himself.

Jayanthi Ramesh
would like to obtain a copy of this, translated in English. Any idea where it is available? This is to understand the poetry better as I am not very fluent in understanding the original in chaste Hindi.
Bobby Sing
Hi Jayanthi Ramesh, Thanks for visiting and writing in, but actually these translations are not from any book as such. These are my own self translations of the valuable poems of Shri Harivansh Rai Bachchan and I am glad to know that you liked them a lot. I really wish to do more work in this direction and would surely post more such translations at my site soon...so Keep Visiting. Cheers!

Hi Sandeep, According to my knowledge that programme is not available on any format in the market. You can only watch its clipping on the websites like youtube etc. But if you want to have the Original CDs of Poems of Sh. Bachchan from Madhushala and other books sung by both Amitabh Bachchan and Manna Dey then you can try the links given below :

Hi Bobby,
Your response to Jeyanthi Ramesh.. It is available in English. 10 years back I read and even Translated about 30 Poems into Tamil then lost my English copy. Unfortunately i do not know the publisher. Now last couple of years iam also searching for the English version but unable to find one. Could you please check your sources. If available i could buy and complete my translation. Regards Rajan
Bobby Sing

Bobby Sirji,
This is an amazing website of yours! I can call it an ultimate stop for movie buffs of my type. Madhushala is playing in my various music players since 1986, when I was in 6th. Presently it is ripped from the CD that I own and it is a constant in all my playlists! Today, I got my nth printed Hindi version. So many have been lost/stolen (mostly)/ loaned/ given with good intention, that I have forgotten the number! Thanks for the detailed post. Yours, Ra.

Unable to find Madhushala sung by Amitabh Bachchan. Everywhere that I have looked including the three links posted by you have only the version sung by Manna Dey.
Bobby Sing
Hi Sunil, Actually there is a little confusion here.
