    Consider the following prominent works of Gujarati literature. What is the common characteristic shared by all the literary works listed below?

    1. AAll of these books have been adapted into famous Gujarati feature films.
    2. BAll of these books were published prior to India's independence in 1947.
    3. CAll of these books are written by authors who have been honoured with the prestigious 'Jnanpith Award'.
    4. DAll of these books are poetry collections that have received the 'Ranjitram Suvarna Chandrak'.
    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: C

    Saapna Bhara is by Umashankar Joshi, Dhwani by Rajendra Shah, Malela Jeev by Pannalal Patel and Amrita by Raghuveer Chaudhari, and all four authors are Jnanpith Award laureates. The works span different genres and publication years, so the only shared trait is their authors' Jnanpith honour.
