Answer 1

Vaikom Muhammad Basheer was a Malayalam fiction writer from the state of Kerala in India. He was a humanist, freedom fighter, novelist and short story writer. He was noted for his path-breaking, disarmingly down-to-earth style of writing that made him equally popular among literary critics as well as the common man.

Answer 2

What is 1+1? Simple logic dictates the answer is 2. But, there was once a man who, in one of his stories, gave a different answer—immini balyoronnu (a big 1). It was this homespun wisdom that set Vaikom Muhammad Basheer, the 'Bepur Sultan', apart from his contemporaries, remaining a literary giant even 24 years after his death. He is a rarity—a writer known as the son of two lands (Bepur and Vaikom). His world renowned stories were translated to more than 18 languages.

He wrote about people, and he wrote about nature. The universal appeal of his stories could be greatly attributed to his life experiences during a nine-year-long exile, avoiding arrest for his activities during the nationalist movement. Inspired by Bhagat Singh, he started publishing a weekly Ujjeevanam, advocating revolutionary ideals.

His journey took him to different parts of India, as well as Arabia and Africa. Magician, palm reader, store keeper, salesman, paperboy, hotel waiter, tuition master, monk—the list of professions and roles is unending. The pain and struggle of those days came out through his stories, a package of simple language and natural, ingrained humour. One could see his humane nature in his writings. In one of his short stories, Oru Manushyante Kadha (story of a human being), Basheer talks about his experiences in a Pathan village. He realises he was pickpocketed after having food from a dhaba. The angry cashier strips him, but then, from nowhere, a stranger pays his bill. The man then takes him to a corner, shows him a set of wallets and directs him to take his own. He gets back his wallet. Basheer asks him his name, but the guy does not respond. “It must be mercy,” the writer says in his mind.
