ਧਰਤੀ ਧੱਕ - Emotional Punjabi Story - Ranjodh Singh

About this episode

This episode explores the emotional struggles of aging parents feeling neglected by their successful children.

”ਵੇਖ ਨਸੀਬ ਕੁਰੇ, ਸਾਰੀ ਉਮਰ ਮਿੱਟੀ ਦੇ ਨਾਲ ਮਿੱਟੀ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਰਿਹਾ, ਪਰ ਅੱਜ ਆਪਣੇ ਹੀ ਘਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਰਾਏ ਹੋ ਗਏ ਹਾਂ।” What happens when a father’s legendary strength is finally defeated, not by labor, but by the indifference of his own children? Known as ”Dharti Dhak” for his tireless work in the fields, this father sacrificed everything to ensure his sons reached the heights of government service and social respect. But as their success grew, the father’s place in the home began to shrink. In this deeply emotional episode of Kitaab Kahani, we witness the heartbreaking reality of aging parents who feel like tenants in the very house they built with their own hands. Narrated by Ranjodh Singh, this story is a powerful reminder for modern families to look back at the roots that sustain them. A must-listen for the global Punjabi diaspora.
