Writing mainly in Urdu, he produced 22 collections of short
stories, a novel, five series of radio plays, three collections of essays and
two collections of personal sketches. His best short stories are held in high
esteem by writers and critics. He is best known for his stories about the
partition of India, which he opposed, immediately following independence in
1947. Manto's most notable work has been archived by Rekhta.
Manto was tried for obscenity six times; thrice before 1947
in British India, and thrice after independence in 1947 in Pakistan, but was
never convicted. He is acknowledged as one of the finest 20th century Urdu

directed by Sarmad Khoosat and the 2018 film Manto, directed by Nandita Das.
