Rememembering Majrooh Sultanpuri on His Birth Anniversary 01 Oct 14 Majrooh likh rahe the woh ahad-e wafa kaa naam, Ham bhi khade huye the gunahegaar ki tarah. Every poet or lyricist of that era had some signature genre or the other. Majroohs was avanguard or progressive Urdu poetry. He excelled in such futuristic poetry in sync with modern thought. However, in the 1970 Rajinder Singh Bedi movie Dastak he returned to traditional and excelled himself. Even though it was the movies Music Director Madan Mihan who was given the National Award and not Majrooh, I feel the latter deserved it too. Look at the list: 1. Maayi ri main kaase kahun. 2. Tumase kahoon ik baat. 3. Baiyan na daro And this one that I am giving you. If you know the story, see how well Majrooh captured the aching state of heart of the heroine Rehana Sultan.
