Synopsis
Aab-e-Gum describes some fictional characters who are hilariously nostalgic. Humor has been created by keeping the psychology of these characters and their retrospect in front, in such a way that the book is not only the masterpiece of Mushtaq Ahmed Yusufi but also one of the best in the history of Urdu humour.[2][3][4]
Awards
Aab-e-Gum received the Hijra Award and the National Literary Award for the best book in 1990.[5][6]
