English term or phrase: flashback
Definition from Bedford/St. Martin's:
A narrated scene that marks a break in the narrative in order to inform the reader or audience member about events that took place before the opening scene of a work.

Example sentence(s):
  • Convoluted flashback structures are not only intellectually based, they tend to distance the viewer from that 'simple reality' they come to the movies to enjoy. It is no surprise that many great movies with complicated or innovative flashback structures were not particularly popular, not crowd-pleasers. DVDTalk.com
  • It is true that flashbacks can make the majority of the story confusing, but the concept is a bit like putting a puzzle together - you're not really sure where each piece fits or what the picture really looks like until the very end. Therein lies the payoff. streetdirectory.com
  • The flashback should be prompted by an incident, dialog, or intense action which brings a vivid memory to the character. Helium.com

Yes  Amar Nath: हिन्दी भाषा में फ़्लैशबैक शब्द घुलमिल सा गया है इसलिए इसे ही लिखा जाए तो बेहतर होगा

पूर्वप्रसंग-चर्चा


Definition from own experience or research:
a transition (in literary or theatrical works or films) to an earlier event or scene that interrupts the normal chronological development of the story

Example sentence(s):
  • कहानी बार-बार फ़्लैशबैक में जाती है. जितनी विविधता सवालों में है उतनी ही मुम्बई की परतें खुलती हैं. आखिर में कहानी वर्तमान में आती है और जमाल आखिरी सवाल का जवाब देने वापिस लौटता है. - फ़िल्म समीक्षा  

Explanation:
हालाँकि शब्दकोश में फ़्लैशबैक के लिए पूर्वप्रसंग-चर्चा का प्रयोग उपलब्ध हो जाता है, पर अधिकांशतः सामान्य प्रचलन में अंग्रेज़ी शब्द फ़्लैशबैक का ही प्रयोग किया जाता है.

अतीतावलोकन,पूर्व-दृश्‍य पार्श्व-दृश्य, पूर्ववर्ती झलक/ झलकियाँ


Definition from own experience or research:
किसी फिल्म की पटकथा मे सस्पेंस डालने हेतु कहानी की प्रारम्भिक घटनाक्रम को कहानी के मध्य मे पार्श्वझलक flashback के रूप में प्रस्तुत करना प्रभावशाली सिद्ध होता है..

Example sentence(s):
  • Sanjeet Tripathi ने कहा… सुंदर!! विगत स्मृतियां साकी है वाले अंदाज़ में फ़्लैश बैक में चल रही हैं इन दिनों आप और इसी फ़्लैश बैक का नतीजा है कि आपकी स्मृतियां अब शब्दों के रुप में हमारे सामने आ रही हैं। - http://ghughutibasuti.blogspot.com/2007/  

Explanation:
The flashbacks in Casablanca show that magical time in Paris when Rick (Humphrey Bogart) and Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) met and fell in love. The flashback scenes showing them in Paris are simply a linear series of complete scenes inserted into the narrative flow of the storyline.
