Kamleshwar (writer)
Kamleshwar Prasad Saxena (6 January 1932 – 27 January 2007), known mononymously as Kamleshwar, was a 20th-century Indian writer who wrote in Hindi. He also worked as a screenwriter for Indian films and television industry. Among his most well-known works are the films ''Aandhi'', '' Mausam'', ''Chhoti Si Baat'' and ''Rang Birangi''. He was awarded the 2003 Sahitya Akademi Award for his Hindi novel ''Kitne Pakistan'' (translated in English as ''Partitions''), and the Padma Bhushan in 2005. He is considered a part of the league of Hindi writers like Mohan Rakesh, Nirmal Verma, Rajendra Yadav and Bhisham Sahni, who left the old pre-independence literary preoccupations and presented the new sensibilities that reflected new moorings of a post-independence India, thus launching the Hindi literature's ''Nayi Kahani'' ("New Story") movement in the 1950s.
