You are great, Gulzar sahib

I do not think of Urdu or Hindi as a separate language. They are two different registers/versions of Hindustani. This is similar to English spoken in different English speaking parts of the world, which varies in vocabulary, accent etc. Off course the script is different. But today's world of social media, more and more people are opting to write in Roman regardless of whether they think of themselves as Hindi or Urdu speaker.

Gulzar as usual has raised certain thought provoking questions. Urdu ofcourse is gaining grounds at one level and loosing its appeal because of its script .Devnagri scripti has kept Urdu alive and will keep on spreading the sweetness of Urdu .Let us enjoy what we have achieved and what we have.

ماشاءالله

gulzar sahab ki baatein, kisi kisse si lagti hai 🤍

Wah Gulzar saab

بہت خوب

HIS WISDOM SPARKS FROM HIS HONEST APPROACH. JUST THE CHILDISH ARGUMENT ABOUT SAVING URDU? I BELIEVE IT IS LIKE A PRINCESS WHICH HAS THE LUXURY TO WEAR MANY DRESSES! AND CAN COMMUNICATE GLOBAL LANGUAGES!

nice

Great thoughts. However, how many would accept that Urdu Shayeri, when scripted in Devnagiri would be accredited to Urdu. Many still continue saying Hindi Shayeri Suniye where they quote Dr. Bashir Badr. How many would pronounced Zindagi, where dot is put under J and would not pronounce it as Jindagi Dr. Jaleel is pronounced as Dr. Zaleel, by over excitement and so on. Distortion is on going in every field of fine arts and history and may be after xx number of years, they would claim Meer, Ghalib and Firaq were poets of Hindi. Ideal example is Sindhi in India, which after partition adopted Devnagri script and now struggling to revert to Arabic script. I agree with Gulzar Sb on making script popular in the form of fine calligraphy. At Jushan E Rekhta ( 14 - 15 Mar) in Delhi, they had a work station with two calligraphers writing names in Urdu for huge FANS. Everybody proudly possesses his / her names calligraphed in Urdu.

I like Gulzar personally, and I am a fan of his poetry but I don't agree with him on certain comments and suggestions he made while answering the questions. Why Urdu should be written in Devnagri to reach its speakers. Why? I don't understand his logic. He called the Urdu community a bias because it din't accept the idea of writing and presenting Urdu in Devnagri. It is like asking an english speaking community to write english in Sanskrit. or Sanskrit in Urdu. I think he is foolishly playing bias. Why should urdu be written in Devnagri when it has its own script which is as beautiful as the language. Why he suggests to take persian and Arabic words from Urdu to make it simple for people to understand. What a dumb suggestion from a man who himself is connected to literature. Urdu and Persian is the beauty of Urdu language that has made what it is known and loved for. That is its sweetness, cultural grandeur and the richness in the syntax coming from Persian and Arabic words. Why Urdu has to lose its personality to fit into someone's heart and mind liked by those who has no love and respect for the originality of language. If people don't like Urdu with Arabic and Persian words because of Islam and Muslims, its their stupidity because Arabic and Persian are Pre-Islamic languages and are still spoken by non-muslims in the world. Majority community which is the ruling community is not only denying Urdu's position and status in the nation but also trying to steal the identity of the language on the basis of faith of its speakers shows certainly a moral collapse of that community.

Jai ho 🌴Gulzar Sir 🌴 Naman.

With all due respect to Gulzar Sahab, he's being too rude & getting irritated like a frustrated teenager.Interviewer is being as polite as he could be.He's a well read man but being too humble.Thats something a language like Urdu teaches you. Gulzar Saab missed it , sadly.

This is not original video. Usme Gulzar sahab ne is intervewer ka kela kardiya tha ! Ye to isko edit kara hua hai!

Irritating sawaal (khaskar puchne ka tareeka, tahzeeb gayab thi) Sateek jawaab Koi kisi shakhs ko Baba kah raha he Aap Ahmad kasmi kah rahe. Bahut confused laga rekhta.org interview me

नहीं मालूम मुझको ज़ुर्म अपना ही,, पुलिस ने घर मेरा खंगाल रक्खा है!

Interviewer is complete chutiya

اتناچوپٹ انٹرویورنہیں دیکھا

Rekhta please don't send such idiots to interview the persons of such calibre as Gulzar saab ...it not only insults the person being interviewed but also tarnishes your name. Interviewer was unprepared to ask relevant questions, unaware about the subjects he wants to ask about, pedantic about the vision and overall a totally unprofessional candidate for the job.👎🏼👎🏼 Gulzar saab was as elegant and sophisticated and patient as ever and spoke so well. 👍

What a poor piece of journalism

zamarrud mughal aap pakodiyan nahi baich sakte kya
