"Nasha" is a Hindi short story written by Munshi Premchand, focusing on the themes of class disparity and the intoxication of social status.

The story revolves around two friends, Iswari and Bir. Iswari comes from an aristocratic, wealthy background, while Bir belongs to a lower-middle-class family. One evening, Iswari invites Bir to a party at his house. At the party, Bir witnesses the extravagant lifestyle of the wealthy and the way people fawn over Iswari due to his social standing.

Bir becomes increasingly uncomfortable with the blatant display of wealth and the condescending attitude of Iswari's friends towards those less fortunate. He observes how Iswari, influenced by his privileged environment, also starts behaving arrogantly.

The climax arrives when a poor farmer comes to Iswari's house seeking help. Iswari and his friends mock the farmer and turn him away. Bir, deeply affected by this incident, confronts Iswari about his insensitivity and reminds him of their shared values of equality and compassion. Iswari, however, dismisses Bir's concerns, blinded by his newfound sense of superiority.

Disillusioned, Bir realizes the intoxicating effect of social status and the corrupting influence of wealth. The story ends with Bir distancing himself from Iswari, understanding that the "nasha" (intoxication) of class has poisoned their friendship and Iswari's character.

In essence, "Nasha" is a commentary on the destructive nature of social inequality and the way it can erode human values and relationships.
