Abstract
Saadat Hassan Manto is one of the greatest Urdu short story writer of the twentieth century in the Indo Pakistan sub-continent. Born in the colonial period, his literary pursuits reflect the culture, customs, language and traditions of the prevalent society. Manto has the singular honour of being renowned short story writer of colonial as well as postcolonial period. Homi K. Bhabha is a well-known postcolonial theorist and has extensively dilated his concepts of Mimicry, Ambivalence and Hybridity etc. Manto;s legendary short story Toba Tek Singh has been previously analyzed from diverse and multiple perspectives of socio-economic, cultural, historical, identity aspects etc In this article an endeavour has been made to analyze this short story under the lens of theory of Bhabha s Mimicry, Ambivalence and Hybridity thus exploring yet another dimension of Manto;s literary works. This is a new vista of critique from Bhabha theory and bi-lingual analysis which further enhances significance of this article.
