Sahir toh hain hi jaadugar, ismei koi shaq nhi..magar Parth, you have done this brilliantly. On this occasion, many anchors, presenters and poets conducted programme on Sahir, but I found yours the best !!
He was far ahead of his time, he was the greatest after Allama Iqbal poet of the east. No other poet of this era has written so thought-provoking n soul-stirring lyrics/poems as Sahir.
Einstein’s Quote about Mahatma Gandhi fits perfectly well about stature of Sahir Ludhianvi’s Poetry & Philosophy in Literature & Bollywood history-- “Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth. (said Einstein of Mahatma Gandhi)” Sahir’s poetry & wisdom would shine on this earth long after we have perished. SAHIR= Wisdom of Aristotle+Brilliance of Einstein. Sahir Ludhianvi was FIRST A PHILOSOPHER who wrote poetry to convey his GOD GIVEN WISDOM & life experiences of his own to common man for his/her welfare in his poetry. Every word was carefully crafted & inserted in the right context to convey true message from that great thinker for A given situation (issue facing common man under similar circumstances).Not even one other published poet in any language has addressed so many diverse issues facing the mortals in his/her work as Sahir has done in impeccable manner & forceful combination of words. Long after we (mortals) have perished immortal poetry by SAHIR would shine on this earth with light radiated by NEXT SUN after demise of the present Sun.
There was a conference of well known writers and poets in a Russian town. Sahir Saheb,. Imroz and Amrita Madam dined their dinner in a hotel. It was very cold at one side of the hotel there was Ocean at other side there was a Kindle and at third side there was a range of Mountain, thus this was a beautiful and romantic place. After dinner they started drinks. When the drinks was over, Imroz and Madam left the table. Sahir Saheb was alone at the table with three empty glases. At that time Sahir Saheb wrote this song and at 11 pm phoned to Madam and recited this song. This is the story behind this song.
Sudha Parekh. There is only one Sahir in this world even though he said some one will be better than me in future but that is wrong. Parth hai you did very good. I enjoyed from New York
Liked the presentation but a little research would have helped. Sahib Saab wasn’t involved with Kaagaz Ke Phool ( Kaifi Azmi ) & the movie you referred should read as Chitralekha ( Chandralekha was a movie from the late 40’s )
Great Sahir was born at Malerkotla. His father had many wives. His mother moved to Ludhiana. He was student of Government College Ludhiana. Not of Khalsa College. Chand kalian nishat ki chun kar, Mudton mehveyas rehra hoon Tujh se milna Khushi ki baat sahi Tujh se mil ke udaas rehta hoon. This is the beginning of his book TALKHIYAN. Sahir can't be emulated.
