    Respected Prof. Agarawal,
    Shall request your guidance for producing an original play on That unique weaver of Benaras – Kabir with strong music inputs explaining the modernity of this almost six hundred years old sage.

    My earlier plays have been ‘Dara Shikoh – A historic betrayal’, ‘Amrita – A sublime Love Story’, ‘Kuchh Ishq Kiya Kuchh
    Kaam, and some more. Run a cultural set up named Impresario Asia. Shall be grateful for your learned views. Regards. K.K. Kohli

    Respected Professor Purushottam Agrawal,

    I have prepared an essay on Buddh and Kabir after reading the following two books,
    जहं जहं चरण परे गौतम के – लेखक बौद्ध सन्यासी तिक न्यात हन्ह
    अकथ कहानी प्रेम की
    I humbly request your permission to quote from your book.
    Where can I send the essay for your kind perusal?

    I am a retired engineer and returned to such literature recently. I want to publish the essay in a book of my short stories and essays if permission is granted.

    With Kind Regards
    Arun Srivastava
